Today in class we went over all the asia map. Mr Bruns said we were cruising along with the maps. We picked up on Sadamm blog topic. He was a captured in 2006 and hung to death. He was the leader Al-Queda and a big terrorist. We helped Iraq when they went to war with Iran. The U.S. provided them with weapons and money. Then Iraq started messing with the Kurds to the north then we started to hate Iraq. Next we talked about why Iraq invaded Kuwait and what Iraqis goals were. Iraq invaded Kuwait because they accused Kuwait of stealing there oil in 1990. Kuwait was overrun iwithin two days of combat. Jena, Dru, and me talked about Iraqis goals. United Nations and a whole bunch of other countries helped iraq get out of Kuwait. This many to protect are oil in these Middle Eastern countries. Mr. Bruns touched on the Persian Gulf War. Economic Sanctions means restrictions put on agressive countries restricting inports and exports. Cuba, North Korea, Sudan, Iraq, and Iran are the one we have on today. Mr. Bruns said Seussi cal tonight and make sure you go to it. WMD means Weapons of Mass Distruction. We had a no fly zone on Iraq so they couldn't move troops into the North and South Iraq. This helped provide Iraq from invading Kuwait and the Jurds in North Iraq. That is what we did and what I learned in class today.
