a. much shorter.
b. much longer.
c. less dangerous.
d. more dangerous.

The correct answer is A) Much shorter.

World War I began in 1914. The British and French troops became involved in the fighting almost immediately. However, the US did not enter World War I until 1917. The United States adopted a policy of neutrality in 1914, as they hoped to avoid being involved in this war in Europe.

However, this policy changed when the US had constant conflict with Germany. The final straw was when the British intercepted the Zimmerman Telegram and informed the United States of what Germany was trying to do. Essentially, Germany was trying to get Mexico to invade the US so that they did not have to worry about the US helping the Allied powers. This resulted in the US officially joining the war in 1917, three years after Britain and France.

the ss was the main organization responsible for the genocidal murder of around six million people of european ethnic minorities, essentially jews, in the holocaust. the members of all its branches committed war crimes and crimes against humanity during the second world war (1939-1945). likewise, the ss were involved in commercial enterprises and exploited the inmates of the concentration camps as slave laborers.

the tortures and assassinations committed by the ss were the result of an ideology developed long before the armed conflict, this ideology was based on the racial supremacy of the germans over the rest.
