  • "Soldiers, you are naked and ill-fed! Government owes you much and can give you nothing. The patience and courage you have shown in the midst of these rocks are admirable; but they gain you no renown; no glory results to you from your endurance. It is my design to lead you into the most fertile plains of the world. Rich provinces and great cities will be in your power; there you will find honor, glory, and wealth. Soldiers of Italy! will you be wanting in courage or perseverance?"

      why napoleon invaded russia
  • In 1811, Tsar Alexander I, supposedly allied with Napoleon, refused to be part of the continental blockade of British goods any longer. Napoleon’s edict barring trade with Great Britain was ruining the Russian economy. Tensions quickly escalated; every attempt to negotiate failed.
  • As the Tsar's armies retreated, they burned the countryside behind them, leaving the Cossacks to hack at Napoleon's rear and flanks, then gallop away
  • Moscow was at his mercy, but the Russians refused to make peace. As Napoleon’s army entered the city on September 14, he found it almost deserted. That night, Moscow began to burn

The History Place - Great Speeches Collection: Napoleon Bonaparte Speech - Farewell to ... - 0 views

  • Soldiers of my Old Guard: I bid you farewell. For twenty years I have constantly accompanied you on the road to honor and glory. In these latter times, as in the days of our prosperity, you have invariably been models of courage and fidelity. With men such as you our cause could not be lost; but the war would have been interminable; it would have been civil war, and that would have entailed deeper misfortunes on France. I have sacrificed all of my interests to those of the country. I go, but you, my friends, will continue to serve France. Her happiness was my only thought. It will still be the object of my wishes. Do not regret my fate; if I have consented to survive, it is to serve your glory. I intend to write the history of the great achievements we have performed together. Adieu, my friends. Would I could press you all to my heart

Why conspiracy theories and the Illuminati are not real - 0 views

  • Conspiracy theorists are the type of people who constantly blame others for what's happened. This means that all the bad things that have happened to them in life they can blame on this shadowy force that they believe is running the world. They can pass over the responsibility for their life to those that they think are controlling the world. Whereas conspiracy theorists will say that they 're empowering themselves with knowledge, this is actually giving somebody else power over their lives.
    • Shana Zadron
       
      thus their is no such thing as illumanati because of such conspiracies that blame others.
  • Conspiracy theorists have a sheltered and small-minded view of the world. They do not comprehend how vast and diverse and distant governments and countries around the world are. They do not know how complicated the day-to-running of a society's courts, hospitals, police and other services are. Often the running of these services can come down to an individual's decision
    • Shana Zadron
       
      everybody is busy who would be free in order to controll the world  and make plans to destroy the world.

Denver International Airport | New World Order | The Pale Horse Revelation - 0 views

  • Twenty years and beyond not a single American could have comprehended that in the middle of the heartland where the Great Plains meet the Rocky Mountains, the Pale Horse of Death awaits your arrival. Even today, a large majority of Americans refuse to allow their thinking abilities to ascertain, and question, why a diabolical looking horse with vines and red glowing eyes greets all visitors at The Denver International Airport? Indeed, the argument can suggest that this evil looking horse represents a “bronco” identifying with the “Denver Broncos”; however, this type of “Bronco” misses the mark on the logo of the Denver NFL football teams memorabilia
    • Shana Zadron
       
      A  horse with red eyes?  But the broncos mascot doesnt have red eyes or a dark blue body color.
  • Combining the Artwork of the Murals, the Masonic Capstone that directly refers to the New World Airport Commission, and the Gargoyles sitting in Suitcases in the baggage terminals—the concept that this “Bronco” represents anything other than the Pale Horse of Death in the Book of Revelation sits as illogical with deep thinking individuals. Once inside many travelers and visitors have questioned the odd murals, artwork, and layout of the Denver Airport. Many travelers and researchers of Denver International will comment on the weird energy and the strange layout such as some of the concourses are only connected by train, no walking
    • Shana Zadron
       
      I have been to the DIa and its true all you do is catch trains barely any walking .There are paintings that are really non-fitting to certain places.
  • The cost of $4.8 billion, nearly $2 billion over budget, creating one of the most efficient airfields in the world that created the diagram of the Nazi Swastika. The 33,000 acres (52 sq mi; 130 km) of land occupied by the airport is nearly twice the land area of Manhattan.
    • Shana Zadron
       
      but why so much area?

  • Fueling system that can pump 1000 gallons of jet fuel per minute. This amount is totally absurd for a commercial airport.
    • Shana Zadron
       
      Thats alot. so much energy for something underground .
  • Different contractors have been hired for different parts of the airport.
  • There is a large number of people that agree: The Denver International Airport is built for the New World Order. It is said that DIA will serve as the headquarters for the New World Order in the West, an underground city for the elites, a military base, and a huge surface/underground concentration camp, or “Death Intermediate holding Area”. The reality is that DIA could also serve as an extermination/death killing center for the New World Order

The Illuminati Does Not Exist | Let's Talk About It.... - 0 views

  • t’s  funny how we all know the agenda of this so called SECRET organisation, how it SECRETLY operates, it’s SECRET symbols, it’s SECRET handshakes, it’s SECRET history and most importantly it’s SECRET members. If The Illuminati is a SECRET organisation that is as powerful as everyone makes it out to be then it should be a SECRET organisation that is just that – A FREAKIN’ SECRET. They should not be Youtube videos, documentaries, websites, books, blog posts and articles about them. Anyone who isn’t a member of this organisation should even be thinking about, thinking about their existence. Real SECRET organisations don’t mess about with their shit. Dear reader that is the number one reason why I think that The Illuminati is bullshit, because it’s a SECRET organisation that is public knowledge.
    • Shana Zadron
       
      If its a secret why does (almost) everybody know about it? That is a important point to notice.
  • Secondly, this Illuminati stuff is all over the place and there is no solid proof.
    • Shana Zadron
       
      NO solid proof! but if its a secret  there has to be no proof !
  • People came to this conclusion because all these celebrities (let’s focus on the ones in the music industry), talk about “The New World Order”, “Illuminati” itself and someone called “Rain Man” who is supposed to be Satan. Also they have triangles and one eye(s) everywhere, they have subliminal messages in songs and music videos and are brainwashing us with music (they are devil worshipers and the devil was the angel of music once upon a time). Now, I know exactly why all these celebrities  in the music industry go around throwing up triangles like there’s no tomorrow.

      true!Why would a top secret society revels themselves like that?
  • I know one of the reason that people believe in The Illuminati is because there’s way to much evidence. But honestly we don’t have any solid proof apart from, theories all over the internet, the ramblings of celebrities and what they chose to wear and put in their videos

  • haute couture
  • Luxury wear and affordable luxury are more commonly sold in boutiques and high-end department stores. Oftentimes, the number of pieces available for purchase is limited, which makes the demand greater.

      Paris is the first large fashion industry. 
  • It is set at a decidedly lower price level than designer clothing
  • While obviously falling in the lowest price range of the fashion industry, discount clothing remains an ever popular choice. Admittedly, the quality tends toward the lower-end, but the price proves to be the draw for the buyer. Discount clothing will often include knock-off apparel, which are pieces copied from luxury and designer wear.

      The website claims that the fashion industry started in the 17th century and what was popular. The publisher develops this idea sequentially by providing the time fashion industry started and what the popular price for the people.the website incorporates photographs to clarify what cheep clothes are popular with the people.
