Your need to ensure all Views are initialised before running code against them. As njzk said getQuestionList is throwing hence prgloading or txtAlert is null so move the code that accesses getQuestionList from OnCreate to an overridden onActivityResult. (Fragment lifecycle -http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/Fragment.html#Lifecycle).
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.
