Today we did a Write to Learn about why the United States and other countries went to war with Iraq in 1990. Then we went over the Central America map and then continued with our blog discussions. Isaac's blog was about why the United States invaded Iraq in 2003 because the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom told us that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction and we wanted to stop them from producing them. The truth was that Saddam Hussein was doing everything he could to pretend that he had nuclear weapons because he wanted Iran to be afraid of Iraq so they wouldnt try to pick a fight with them. So the real story was that Iraq didn't have weapons of mass destruction and the United States had just received wrong information from the United Kingdom.
