3) Sink the ship that brought Richard Bush to America.

1) If you inject them with diseases, it would just be a couple hundred years earlier that they die off from those disease, unless you mean vaccinate them.

2) That was just the straw that broke the camels back, WWI was happening regardless of if he got shot or not. It was a ticking time bomb.

Now, for mine, I wouldn't want to change anything, because like Moses said, a small change would completely change the world, however, I would like to be able to go back and observe certain moments in history.

1) Battle of Austerlitz, either a birds eye view or from the vantage of napoleon

2) Battle of Chancellorsville, same as before, but with Lee.

3) The discovery of the new world.

does this time machine just go back in time, or can you go ahead in time as well?

ummm because jews controlled all the banks in Germany, and the way to get elected and become dictator, he had to blame all the troubles on someone...
