is Brutus justified to kill JC

Brutus’s motivations behind the death of Caesar is clearly evident in his speech after the assassination. Throughout his speech, Brutus relies on reason and logical rationale and syllogisms to explain the reasons behind the assassination “If then that friend demand why Brutus rose against Caesar, this is my answer: not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more. Had you rather Caesar were living, and die all slaves, than that Caesar were dead, to live all free man? /as he was ambitious, I slew him”. These strong and emotive words demonstrate Brutus strong love for Rome. Thus it can be said that, although Shakespeare presents various perceptions towards Julius Caesar, the composer’s bias is not negated.

The Night of Long Knives, one of most noteworthy events during Hitler’s rule, was a purge that occurred on the 30th June 1934. Hitler ordered the murders of conspicuous Conservative anti-Nazis such as Kurt Von Schleicher and Gustav Ritter von Kahr, Left wing Nazis such as Gregor Strasser and many members of the SA including its leader Ernst Rohm. It could be claimed that the murders were significant as they ended a possible takeover by the SA, deterred and intimidated Conservative critics while gaining their support, saw the rise of the SS, introduced terror and dictatorship into mainstream life and reassured the elites and the army.

By autumn 1941, the SS and police established gas vans (“USHMC, 1999”). They pumped poisonous carbon monoxide gas into small spaces, killing anything within its reach. On July 17th of 1941, Hitler told SS Chief Heinrich Himmler it was his responsibility to take care of all the security in the Soviet Reunion.

As Hitler's

Is it ever just to kill another human being? No, one cannot justly kill someone. Everyone has a time; and humans can’t alter the fates of another. In William Shakespeare’s play Julius Caesar, the main character, Julius Caesar is made out to be an ambitious and arrogant dictator in Rome. He is surrounded by childhood friends, including his best friend and murderer, Brutus. Brutus is manipulated by Cassius, a roman senator and part of the conspiracy, into believing romans want Julius Caesar dead, so they form a conspiracy to kill Caesar. Although, the Romans say Brutus is honorable, Brutus is not justified in killing Julius Caesar because the conspiracy is driven by jealousy, he is manipulated into believing Caesar should die and romans are

"Experience is the teacher of all things.Veni, Vidi, Vici. (I came, I saw, I conquered.) It is easier to find men who will volunteer to die than to find those who are willing to endure pain with patience." - Julius Caesar. On March 15, 44 BC Julius Caesar was assassinated by his own senators next to the Theatre of Pompey. He was assassinated during a meeting with his senators, he was scheduled to leave for war on March 18. Julius's murders were his own senators and even his own protegè Marcus Brutus. These people plotted against Caesar because of a conspiracy and because they were angry that the new prospect kept getting orders from Caesars underlines. The assassination of Julius Caesar was unjust because he was a strong political leader and he fought for the people of Rome; however some believe that he only wanted power and to be a dictator.

These are all reasons that Brutus should join the conspiracy. Due to the fact that nobody knows if Caesar is truly only going to do good things for the people or if he truly does only want power. Wondering if he is going to turn on everyone like he did to Pompey is not good Brutus would be doing the right thing incase that is what he has planned. “He is a serpent’s egg waiting to hatch”. These are all reasons as to why Brutus should join the conspiracy to kill

When the conspirators were discussing plan on how they should preceed on killing Caesar , Brutus made it very apparent on how the killing should go, stating “Let’s kill him boldly but not wrathfully. / Let’s carve him as a dish fit for gods, / Not hew him as a carcass fit for hounds.” This meant that Brutus loved Caesar enough to respect his remains and not have the murder perceived as gruesome but as essential for Rome to remain free, peaceful and have liberty. Brutus wanted his body to be in such pristine condition that it would be fit for the gods. He was keeping in mind that he was not killing Caesar out of his personal strife, but for greater well-being of Rome. This way of thinking would affect the murder from being seen as savage to humane, only doing what was necessary to kill him. However this would mind-set would change if Brutus hated Caesar. Brutus would not care to respect a body of a man he hated, he would want to kill him wrathfully, and try to cause the most pain he possibly could.

Brutus said that he killed Caesar for his ambition, and he was trying to protect the people. Brutus had to choose between his friendship with Caesar and his public responsibility to protect the Roman Republic. In certain situations, one persons life may have to be sacrificed to save the majority. “Some historians think that the death of Hitler in 1939 could have saved millions of people, including most of the Jews of Europe, from death” (Thompson). Nobody knows what type of things Caesar would have done in power and that is why Brutus had to stop him before it was too

To conclude, leaders are assassinated by conspirators for the benefit of society. These assassinations convey a pattern which is generally linked to political instability and possible oppression towards a nation. This pattern is shown in The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, where the crowning of Caesar would lead to tyrannical rule and oppression through slavery. This can also be applied to the assassination of Lincoln, because Booth believed that Lincoln’s views would lead to defeat and oppression for the South. Therefore, these conspirators’ actions can be justified because ultimately, they wanted to preserve their freedom and prevent oppression from their respective political leaders. Society may not agree with the actions that these conspirators

All things considered, Brutus made the right decision to join the conspirators against Caesar. Throughout his speech Brutus gives valid points and explanations for why Caesar must never become king. The fate of the Roman Empire can not rest in the hands of Caesar alone, therefore Brutus and the other Conspirators plan to be sure of that. They confirm that Caesar will never get a chance to be king by killing him. Brutus Provides adequate information on the assassination of Julius Caesar, and as to why it is the right thing for him to
