Supporters of doctors who assist critically ill patients to die say that people have the right to end their lives in a painless and dignified way.

the possibility of doctors taking this too far by helping the poor and disabled end their lives. Religious critics say that doctor-assisted suicide goes against God’s will. Others fear that a patient's age and inability to pay medical bills may be used as 6) Criteria to determine who lives and who dies.
I think that docters should not assist patients into ending their own lives. Its shows great emphasis  to the patients being asked if they want to end their own life. The patients themsleves should have the consent to not end their own lives. The criteria to this is so that it should be illegal to use euthanasia because this does not seem normal to the society to actually pass this.

consent- To permit, approve or agree; comply or yield. 
criteria- A standard of judgment or criticism.

A) Do you think that euthanasia should be an individual right or should it be determined by the courts
B)Is there a chance that physician-assisted suicide could go too far?
Answer: I think that euthanasia should be an individual right to every citizen. I think this because every human being has a right to end their own life if they have a very bad illness. The reason is because they might mot want to go through the pain. Yes it actually could because the ill person might end up getting better out of no where with the right medication. Physicians should not assist the ill to end their own life it should be the ill persons choice to do what they want to do.

The Nazis sponsered persecution and they also commited mass murder by killing millions of Jews at places called "Killing Centers." The Jewish civililans offered armed resistance in over 100 ghettos. In Apri-May 1943, rumors spread that the Germans were gonna go out through the ghetto and deport the rest of the Jews.
     It was surpirsing because the Nazis thought that the Jews would be easy to capture and deport. But, the jews fought back when the Nazis tried to invade their places. They threw many molotov cocktails,hand grenades, and a handul of small weapons. It was very hard for the Germans to take control of all the Jews. It took about a whole month for the vastly superior German to completly pacify all of the remaining Germans throught out the ghettos.
       During the same year, ghetto inhabitants chose to rise agains te Germans in Vilna. Many ghetto fighters took up arms in in the knowledge that the majority of ghetto inhabitants had already been deported to the killing center face death. Also in knowledge that the Jews resistance even now could not save from destruction the remaining Jews who could not fight. But the Jews fought for he sake of Jewish honor and to avenge those Jews who have passed away. Thousands of young Jews resisted escaping from the ghettos into forests that were probably the best place to hide in.
       Soon the Jewish prisoners rose against their guards at three killing centers. At Treblinka in August 1943 and in Sobibor in October 1943. Prisoners armed with stolen weapons from the killing centers attacked the SS staff and the Trawniki-trained auxiliary guards. Several dozens prisoners eluded their purserers and survived the war. However in October 1944, at the Auschwitz-Birkenau, members of the Jewish Special Detatchment mutinied against the SS guards.
      In many countried occupied by or allied with the Germans, Jewish restistance often took the form of aid and rescue. Jewish Hannah Szenes n Hungary and Slovakia in 1944. They gave whatever help they could to Jews in hiding. In France, various elements of the Jewish underground consoilidated to form different resistance groups.
