Militainment

I thought that the movie was good however it was too long to truly pay attention. nonetheless i still picked up on the points of the movie . it was realy sad to see how the american media corperations twisted the stories inorder to make them sound more humane and more clean. also it was disapointing to see how bush baned all the reterns of american jurnalists to lower death counts. i was shocked by the part were the pentagon the head of military afairs in the USA decided to bomb that city and killed 13 jurnalests and nurmerus american people and the cnn news brodcaster, just so they could get a sneak atack on iraq. ultimetly this means that the american goverment is willing to kill even its own peopole to gain land and let the fat cats get richer.

1.Were there any differences in the amount of information you were able to fill in on each list?
yes, I found that it was easyer to fill in the list about violence, because there was just more infermation about it. We always see violance on tv and around us every day, we almost never see anything related to peace because a lot of people just dont care about helfing out people anymore.

2.Does the absence of war or violence mean that we have peace?
No because there is still conflict, which is cased mostly by prejudice, ignorance and people disliking another for their difrences. I beleave that there will never be true peace aslong as people refuse to acept people for who they are and make an effort to creting a peaceful society.

3.Are we a naturally violent society?
I think we are because we start seeing violance at such an early age that it becomes natural, also there are people who constantly promote war and violance, so to children it apears ok.
