I don't think it would take Skype very long if they really wanted to do it. (And assuming Apple didn't make any problems for them! ) They are a company with plenty of resources and already have all the expertise need for video-calling and for iPhone app calling.
I can't see mashing up the two - with the development resources they have - being too difficult. However I don't know how big of a priority that would be at Skype. My guess would be you'll see a Skype iPhone Applications|iPhone app with video calling in 3-6 months time.
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.
