World War 3

I think World War 3 will not happen because there is no other country that needs to fight a war. Even the USA can back out of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars because there is no need to be fighting in those wars. The world now, in my opinion, does not need to be "upgraded" to the point of war and no country has the need to start the war. The wars that we fight now are unnecessary, they are to get more oil, or find a person that we think did something very wrong, but there is no need to go to war. It would be pointless to go into another world war. And even if there is another world war, I don't think that a lot of countries would join. I do not know what weapons World War 3 will have, but if there is a World War 3, World War 4 will be fought with sticks and stones or bows and arrows.

World War 2 Recipe

Start with a failed Treaty of Versailles
Add in a failed League of Nations
Add in the rise of Fascism
Add in 3 of the worst leaders of all time: Hitler, Mussolini, and Stalin
Add a pinch of appeasement by Britain and France to Germany
Let Hitler invade Rhineland
Let him annex Austria
Give him part of Czechoslovakia
Than let him take over the rest of Czechoslovakia
Let Japan attack Pearl Harbor
And let them invade China

And there you have it... World War 2

About tyranny, injustice, and self-determination

Tyranny means to have absolute power executed unjustly. Tyranny relates to the book because farmer Jones takes all the milk from the cows without letting them drink any of it, all the eggs from the chickens without one of the eggs becoming a chick, and all the energy from the horses to plow the fields instead of plowing it himself. Injustice means violation of the rights of others. It relates to the book the same way of how tyranny does, farmer Jones is treating the animals very badly. Self-determination means without outside influence. This word relates to the book because even though Old Major died, the words he said before he died started the revaluation between farmer Jones and the animals.

Military

In America, it is not required to join the military. But you could get drafted from age 18 to 25 depending on how big the war is. I think it is right that America doesn't require everybody to go to the military. Personally I am against going to war or fighting in any way. I would rather go to college than join the military.

Great Powers Game

The main visual elements are how some countries are fighting, some countries are making alliances, and some countries are making other countries fight for them. The issue that this political cartoon is trying to cover is how some countries wage wars while other countries trade and try to become allies.

My Goals for 3rd Quarter

I met 2 of my goals, and the 2 that I met were bringing a bag of chips (which I am stopping) and I learned about other countries mainly Africa. In Africa, I learned about Central Africa. Becoming a better oral speaker I still have to work on (which I put in my next paragraph)

My 3 goals for 3rd quarter are getting at least a B, becoming a better oral speaker, and study better for tests and quizzes.
