The Jewish resistance movement was significant because it showed that the Jews did not give up and kept on fighting even what they have been through. To prevent future genocides, world leaders need to have the political will to stop them and the world needs to develop international institutions that predict and prevent it.

About 45,000 people on the first day of the bombing and 19,000 thousand after that do to radiation and cancer.

What have I got in my pocket?

Two people found dead on Verona streets and a man banished from the city.

On Monday afternoon, the Montague and Capulet families were at it again! Mercutio, some may say to be jester or prankster, was seen arguing with Tybalt Capulet (Juliet Capulet’s cousin on her mother’s side). Then a young man from the Montague family stepped between them and told them to stop. That made Tybalt angry, so he challenged the young Romeo to battle but, Romeo refused to. So Mercutio, battles Tybalt for his young friend, and pleases the crowd by doing so. At first it started out as them two were merely playing fighting, but it ended with Mercutio bleeding out from a stab wound to the stomach. Romeo taking revenge for Mercutio’s death, he encounters Tybalt in battle. There were fighting down the streets of Verona with a crowd of Montague’s and Capulet’s following them. Tybalt kicked Romeo’s sword out of his hand and kicks dirt in Romeos face. Tybalt was about to pierce him with his sword but Romeo takes a dagger from his belt and stabs him in the stomach. Romeo flees the crime scene quickly. Later that day, The Prince orders that Romeo be banished.
