At the beginning of class Mr. Bruns talked about some of the current events going on in the world and he talked about keeping our grades up since the end of the quarter is coming up. Then we went over the Latin America map. After that we started on our blog discussions over Iraq. The first topic we talked about was Saddam Hussein. He helped the poor people and got the position of General in the Iraq army. Saddam got elected to be president and everyone thought he was going to be a great leader. He ended up turning the country into something sort of like a dictatorship. This man was completely in charge and killed many for no good reason. Hussein demanded that large posters and pictures of him be put up around Iraq. The goal of the Persian Gulf War was to get Kuwait free and have Iraq get out of there. We will finish our blog discussion tomorrow.
