(b) Blud und Boden (Blood and Soil)
(c) Lebensraum (Living Space)
(d) All of the above

Answer 1

The belt buckle Esther took from a wounded Nazi soldier in the book 'Resistance' had 'Gott mit Uns' (God with Us) inscribed on it, a phrase reflecting Nazi propaganda. So, the best answer is a, Gott mit Uns (God with Us).

Step-by-step explanation:

In the book Resistance, the belt buckle Esther took from a wounded Nazi soldier was inscribed with the phrase 'Gott mit Uns' (God with Us).

This phrase was commonly used on the belt buckles of German soldiers during World War II, reflecting the propaganda meant to convey that the divine was on the side of the Nazis.

It is symbolic not only of the soldier's allegiance to the Nazi regime, but also of the larger ideological combat at play which often leveraged such phrases to justify the heinous actions and policies of the Third Reich, such as the concepts of Lebensraum (living space) and racial purity.

So, the best answer is a, Gott mit Uns (God with Us).
