Victor Frankl mentions how Capos were often worse to prisoners than the SS were. Were the Capos punished after the war?

What I really mean is: From today's perspective, I think no country would decide to launch an attack to USA. They really thought they had a chance to win? Were they expecting other countrie's support?

How did the Catholic Church react to the State of Israel being founded in 1948 by David Ben-Gurion? I don't mean all catholics specifically, but the high ranking members of the church, the pope, cardinals, etc.

If there is no exact date, what was the context of its downfall?

I was reading Henry V and one thing in particular caught my interest - men were kissing. In Act 4, Scene 6 "He threw his wounded arm and kissed his lips, And so, espoused to death, with blood he sealed A testament of noble-ending love." Does this mean they were gay or is was man-on-man kissing common in Henry V's time and not sexual?

By supply I mean weapons, ammunition, etc.... I don’t mean U.S. based companies like coca-cola, but companies that could make a difference in the war effort.

I remember seeing the statement in an ancient warfare module in university, that smaller armies tended to win more often as a trend. Is this true? And if so, why?

Akkadian was quite a prestigious language presumably spoken by many and propagated by numerous empires, yet eventually Aramaic started to displace Akkadian in much of Mesopotamia and was then adopted by the Neo-Assyrian Empire’s government, how did this come to be?

It seems pretty clear that they were guilty of some pretty treasonous behavior, regardless of how that information may have ended up helping the USSR. I was a bit surprised to see all the people asking for clemency.

It seems like if a similar case happened today that there would not be so much protest, though I may be wrong.

I've been told that it is problematic and even a-historical to talk of nations before the modern era, but why is that, exactly?

I have read many analyses (here alone, let alone elsewhere) that provide well-sourced, well-reasoned arguments for both of the above positions: that British/American logistical aid was crucial to allowing the Soviets to regroup and push back the German invasion; and that the Soviet Union's reserves of manpower and resources, and relocation of industry east of the Urals gave them a wartime production capacity that Germany's relatively limited material resources and industry had no hope of overcoming.

So which one is more accurate?

(I'm trying to phrase this in a way that doesn't just ask for speculation on "what would have happened if there was no Lend-Lease?", but that's really the gist of the question.)

Hey guys, this is a really random question, but I’ve done extensive research and personally have tried to find the answer to see if there were any symbols or house crests that were present within the brothels of japan in the 17th century.

I’ve read a couple a books that have done a phenomenal job recounting the life of courtesans, but am still incredibly curious to see if they had crests or any sort of symbols that were affiliated with them.

Thanks again in advanced for the help! Even recommendations for scholars in the field of historical japanese history or collegiate professors with this answer would also be appreciated!

Thanks again in advanced!

I don't have a source, but a while ago, I read something on the internet that said precolonial Africans had a mostly neutral outlook on homosexuality. Is there any truth to this?

Just a brief timeline from it's time as english colonies protesting up until the beginning of the second world war would satisfy my curiosity, I am well aware of the internment camps.

What were the technological breakthroughs and what about the design of the ship that lead it to be considered invincible?
