I'm afraid It's best to install iTunes since it is the official program that organizes your music, videos and apps, in the very superb sense, with auto-fill at ease. Nothing else. It also stores data efficiently and even orderly, so that you don't have to have any problem while putting or removing a new song or so, as doing this without the use of iTunes may cause your iPhone to sync everything or the like.
I think you can only be able to put pictures to your iPhone without the use of iTunes. Good luck :) Though I haven't heard of the possibility of plugging music without the use of iTunes, I doubt it safe since I haven't tried it yet and haven't heard anyone do so. But since you feel bummed with "stupid iTunes", then here's something from Google to make you happy http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/6-ways-to-s... http://www.copytrans.net/copytransmanage...
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
