Let me put it this way - there was a church in England which decided to lift the floor stones and install heat ducts underneath to warm the church. When they lifted the stones they found the skeletons of about 2,000 people. There is no record of who they were or why they were there.
The ground beneath our feet is dead bodies. Soil is everything that died, ever. Everything that ever lived also died.
It's just a fact of life. You continue to live because you eat tree-babies (seeds in fruit). Even if you don't eat meat, a tree just wanted to send it's baby out into the world and you ate the fruit and threw the baby in the garbage, monster!
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.
