The correct answer is:

D. To give an example of how the United States' actions ended human suffering.

Explanation:

Elie Wiesel was a Holocaust survivor and a Nobel Prize winner. Wiesel was invited to the Millennium Lecture series by President Bill Clinton and the First Lady on April 12, 1999, where he delivered his famous speech "The Perils of Indifference".

On his speech Wiesel pointed out how indifference has caused so much suffering and recalled the times when he was held prisoner on Auschwitz, Wiesel stated that all prisoners found comfort on the idea that the rest of the world didn't knew what was going on, or else leaders of the world would intervene. He later explained how knowing that they knew caused even more suffering.

Wiesel stated that indifference is "the friend of the enemy", when people are indifferent to the pain of other people, the enemy keeps abusing and causing more pain.

Wiesel mentions that the United States and NATO's decision to intervene in Kosovo to help victims is an example of how not being indifferent ended human suffering, and gave hope to humanity. He gives Kosovo as an example of how humanity has learnt from the past and that maybe it will stop other dictators from abusing its power.
