Thank a Veteran

I hope some of you will look on Veterans and military service a little more kindly after today.  But you should continue to study WHY we get our military involved.  In your opinion, what would justify miiltary action?  This is a very touchy issue for many - and something you will continually update over your lifetime.  There is never a "correct" answer, simply a justifiable and well-supported one.  If all we cared about was money, we should have sided with the Nazis in WWII.  If all we cared about was a basic right to life, Darfur and Somalia would be peaceful and safe. 

I fixed the Moodle this morning so you should be able to get the chapter 8 handout (9 and 10 are also available).  We'll finish the Ch 8 lecture tomorrow and start 9 on Friday.  There is a Political Forum this Thursday, so maybe plan to go tomorrow.  I am going to grant you EC for attending the one on Dec. 10th.  Get involved, stay active...but most importantly - THINK and DO.  PikaPika
