Al Capone
What is the responsibility of a citizen in times of war? This was the question on many people's minds after the September 11th attack on the twin towers. When President Bush declared war, was it because they attacked us, or because of their religion, maybe even oil, or was their other material that was kept secret that America is not aware of. If the government keeps information away from us how are we supposed to understand what is going on in our nation? In this war, many people do not have an opinion because they do not understand points of views from both sides of the conflict. United States citizens typically support their government because they believe they must do so to be patriotic; which denies them having their own judgment. Culture is the beliefs, feelings and values, and the pattern of behavior shared by a group of people. Through our experience we form a mental picture of our world. How do we gain the knowledge of other cultures and their way of life? Could it be that not
A country is not a democracy if the citizens are not allowed to know what the government is doing. It is always important to understand what is going on in a war and what role you are playing in it. Control of Iraq could give the United States domination over two-thirds of the world's oil, thus, contributing to our countries struggle for power and wealth. It seems not like "a nation at war" but "a government at war" because of all the secrets kept from us. citizens knew more aware of the Muslim culture and beliefs? In the essay "______________________________" by ________________ he writes about and assignment that was given to the new class of freshman just arriving at the University of North Carolina. knowing about culture is what is responsible for much of the misunderstanding that we encounter in the world today?

In the essay "_______________________________" author _______________Duarte3lands a job as a plane technician, wanting to contribute in the war, she realizes and that she had participated in the creation of a monstrous atomic bomb that annihilated the Japanese empire and ended the war. This assignment was rejected by many individuals because it taught the Muslim religion; in reality, it would really help us be more understanding, and fully grip the issue of culture, and realize that other cultures are not inferior, just different. As I sit here wondering what repercussion will come from this war, I too ask myself: why are we at war with Iraq? The reason most often given by President Bush for going to war with Iraq is to reduce the risk of weapons of mass destruction attack on the United States. Yes, there have been polls; but, surely, those cannot be accurate. She was never told what was being created; it was a secret. Iraq, however, possesses no nuclear weapons today and is thought to be several years away from producing any. High percentages support the war, but it is a blind kind of support.
