My part of the script.

The United States and Great Britain as well as other nations outside Nazi Europe received numerous press reports in the 1930s about the persecution of Jews. By 1942 the governments of the United States and Great Britain had confirmed reports about "the Final Solution" -- Germany's intent to kill all the Jews of the Europe. However, influenced by antisemitism and fear of a massive influx of refugees, neither country modified their refugee policies. Their stated intention to defeat Germany militarily took precedence over rescue efforts, and therefore no specific attempts to stop or slow the genocide were made until mounting pressure eventually forced the United States to undertake limited rescue efforts in 1944.
In Europe, rampant antisemitism incited citizens of many German occupied countries to collaborate with the Nazis in their genocidal policies. There were, however, individuals and groups in every occupied nation who, at great personal risk, helped hide th ose targeted by the Nazis. One nation, Denmark, saved most of its Jews in a nighttime rescue operation in 1943 in which Jews were ferried in fishing boats to safety in neutral Sweden.

The animal I most resemble in Animal Farm is Clover because, I am caring towards the people that mean the most to me, like family and friends (Orwell Pg. 2). I am also like Clover, because I try to take care of the people who are hurt, especially if its my family (Orwell Pg. 30). Another reason why I am like clover is, I like to know the truth about things, and so does Clover, especially when Mollie says that she was not stroked by the human, and then Clover goes to Mollies' stable and checks for clues that she was stroked by a human, and finds sugar lumps.

In some countries, joining the military is mandatory, in other countries, optional. For example, in Israel and Singapore both men and women are required to perform two years compulsory military service right after high school. Does your country require military service? If so, how do you feel about this? If not, under what conditions would you ever join the military to defend your country?

England is my home country, and you are not requried to join the military. If my family was under threat from danger then I would join the army to protect my family, or if my country was under threat from war then to save lives I would join the military.
