Do you agree that all primary sources justify history?

No. Primary sources contain their fair share of biases. History cannot truly be “justified” in my personal opinion; it can be observed and seen, though. Primary sources may not include everything that was happening at the time and/or something could have been left out that would even “justify” something happening. Hope this helps! (:

No, some can be heavily biased. Primary sources can also be translated which makes them less reliable. Hope this helps...
