This proves that General Douglas Haig is ‘the Butcher of the Somme’‚ because many young men fought in the war to save the country and they had lost their lives. However‚ it still doesn’t mean that General Douglas Haig is ‘the Butcher of the Somme’‚ because the young men had volunteered‚ Haig didn’t force them to fight they wanted to with their own will.

extent Malcolm is referring to Macbeth as the “dead butcher” and to Lady Macbeth as “his fiend-like queen.” A butcher in the use of this play is a person who kills showing no regret for their actions or reason for the killings. The fiend as Lady Macbeth is to say she is very evil and has no morals‚ able to bend other’s wills to equal her own giving them a confused air of what they really want. On the other hand to say Macbeth was always a butcher is an unfair evaluation of him‚ as it doesn’t reflect

Field Marshal Haig: “Hero or Butcher of the Somme” I consider the field marshal as a butcher and a hero for numerous reasons. While the insinuation of Haig as a butcher ignores many positives that he possessed‚ the implication of him being a hero also neglects negatives that the field marshal obtains. Although the winning of the war had come at the sacrifice of a vast number of soldiers‚ we must not forget that the general had achieved his primary objective even if it had been accomplished in

Does General Haig deserve to be remembered as ‘the butcher of the Somme’? General Haig was a famous general who won the last war in the First World War‚ he should be remembered as a hero‚ but why do people reckon him to be the opposite‚ as a butcher? As the ‘Butcher of the Somme ’? In my point of view‚ I think of general as a butcher rather than a hero‚ for he‚ in the first battle in the First World War‚ the battle of Somme‚ he used 420000 soldiers to defeat 500000 Germans soldiers and gain 10
