Der Irak Krieg und Amerikanische Politik

Well, now you have seen what Austrian teenagers have to say about American Foreign Policy and the war in Iraq. Your assignment is to put in your own "two cents" about this issue and respond to this blog. One of the purposes of this assignment is to get you to think about your opinions and what you believe and why you believe it. The point is not to "brainwash" you with the opinions of these teenagers, but to start a discussion and a forum. Soon you will be adults and you will inherit more responsibilities associated with the direction of our country. In 3-4 short years you will be voting and will be complete members of the American Democracy. Today you have the opportunity to make your opinion noted.

It should be noted that as we were filming this documentary, we were hoping to find at least one teenager who supported the President's decision to attack Iraq. Unfortunately, we were not able to find anyone who could take this position and therefore this section of the film seems to biased. The intention of the filmmakers was to show sentiment of the Austrian youth, whatever that might be and not to take sides.

Please respond to this blog by considering the following:

1. Do you agree with the perspective of the Austrian teenagers? Perhaps you agree with some of the things stated by not others. Please explain why or why not.

2. Pretend that the President of the United States will be reading your opinion. What would you like to say to him about the war and the direction our country is headed? If you support the course of action explain why. If you think it needs some changes, you should state those changes and explain why. Maybe your opinions are in complete contrast with the Government's plan of action. Again, explain why.

3. For privacy issues, sign the blog using only the initials of your name, so I can give you a grade, yet others will not know who you are.
