No one knew for certain the reason for the explosion. APEX
A lot of things did, in various places around the world. The events that jump out in my mind when those dates are mentioned are these:
<u>May 14th, 1948:</u>
The provisional government of the portion of the British Mandate for Palestine that was designated by the UN partition as reserved for Jewish administration declared that it was becoming a free and independent sovereign nation called Israel.
<u>May 15th, 1948:</u>
The massed armies of Syria, Egypt, Jordan, and Iraq rolled into Israel with big signs on the front of their tanks that read "Oh No You're Not !" .
I believe, "Tanks were a fast and reliable means of transporting soldiers" is NOT true.
Answer:
1) Making Inferences In what ways do you think the events during Elizabeth’s youth molded her character?
- Although these events somewhat traumatized the Princess, they also molded her into a strong, independent personality.
Explanation:
2) Interpreting Significance Queen Elizabeth’s refusal to marry was a controversial political decision at the time. Why? Why might Elizabeth have chosen to remain single?
- Because there could not be a queen in a monarchy before a country without a king, it was necessary if or if (male chauvinism of the time). Moreover, Elizabeth decided not to marry anyone, because her greatest wish was to be committed to her country, to be loved and respected by its inhabitants/citizens; and to reign on the throne of England until the day she died.
