War in Iraq

November 8, 2006

After our class discussion on Thursday about Iraq, i am split between two decissions i do not think that America should completely pull out of the country, because that will cut off alot of our oil.  Also, if we stay in the country for along time, then we will be wasting away our money by trying to help them build a country which might not even last.  No one knows that if the second we leave the country it will continue to turn into a war zone filled with racisum just like it was before, or how long we will need to stay in Iraq until things start getting even a slight bit better.  I think that the most logical choice would be to split the country into three different sections, each containing the the different religion that they all practice, which is basically the sections that they are living in today.  This will give each an equal oppertunity to practice their religion on their own will, invest money to support the people, and start the rebuilding process.  For the reasons listed above, I believe that is the most logical answer to all the questions about Iraq.

This book was definatley well worth reading, because it gave its readers a good chance to learn about history.  Especially since this was one of the cruelest acts preformed through mankind.  Night by Elie Wiesel is a perfect book to describe the horrifing journey that the members of the holocost had to embark on.  The only thing that was a little dispointing was the ending, because since the begining is a little boring, tehn by the middle you start gettign a little more interested and by the time the book is over, i wanted to no more about what happened to the characters on a more of a long term scale.  Was there any other racist events in their life that happened to them after? was life alot more difficult without their loved ones? and so on.  THis book really gives the reader a chance to get inside the characters minds and i think that this book should be read by students everywhere. It will realy open up their minds and make them realize the world has not always been so free as they know it today…

From the last finishing point in the book, alot of the ideas and ways that the author represented the characters, setting, and plot has cleared up alot.  what was consusing before, all came together.  Even though this book keeps getting harder to read, and more sad by each page read, it really is worth reading and certainly a once in a life time experience.  Elie Wiesel has a very good technique on writing from memory and discribing the graphic details.  I hope to see things look better towards the end of the book for the main character, Eliezer.


Scottish play the begining

For the scottish play, our group has mostly worked well together, and already developed high quality ideas.  We already have our characters, some stage direction, roles to set up the prompt book, and have run through the script many times.   Personally, i started memorizing my lines, and should have them done by the weekend, because their are only 10.  In responce to the play, we have taken Shakespeares lines, and split the role of the old man into two so it would go along with our group and give each member about an equal number of lines. So far, this has been a well acomplished task.

I chose to read Night, by Elie Weisel, because when searching for a book to read, i skimmed through the back of the books, and this seemed the most interesting.  In 8th grade, i remember studying the hollocast and it grabbed me in more then usual topics.  When i asked people how this book has been, i have got many positive responces, so i hope that it follows through with that.  So far, i know that the book is about the hollocast and the search for survival by this one family, i heard that the book is sad, but worth it.
