There was no Crusade in Sept 11, 2001

On September 11, 2001 there was a terror in New York City. The twin building was destroying. This killed many people: family, friends, and workers. Everything was going crazy because people didn’t know how to react to these things. When Bush said “This crusade, this war on terror is going to take awhile.” This scared people because they though that other people were going to be drag in to the war, other then the people that were responsible. This had a big impact on every body in the Middle East and Europe.

It’s bad to compare the crusade to this war because this war has nothing to do with the war that is going on right now. The Crusade happen long time ago so it’s relevant to bring that up. The people that fought in the crusade were catholic churches; the people that attacked in New York were the Muslims. That tells u it has nothing to do with what happen now.

Gladiator

Life of a Gladiator


The life of a Gladiator is bloody. His life depends on people decisions, a dumb up means live and down means kill. Every time they fight in the end they get to choose if he lives or doomed. If they like him most likely he would live to fight another day.
There are a lot of distractions in the US. Distractions to keep us always from something. They have TVs, Internet, Myspace, Phones, Cells, and Shopping. Anything u can u can think of that’s fun. It’s almost the same thing in Rome; there a lot of things they do to make them think everything is ok. Americans are different from them because we don’t cheer for people to die. We change but sometimes we do force fight to happen.
