Homework for week of Sept 29

The first site below is a youtube tribute to the Iwo Jima flag raisers and is for your enjoyment only..please watch it...wow...
The second site is a paper written on just war and the various views concerning war...I do not know the author, but in reading it, i thought it summarized the positions well...Read it over lightly (just note the main points) and write an outline of the main points and positions he discusses - we will use it in our class discussions at times through the year as we discuss various wars and actions/events in those wars...
The third site is a brief 5 minute youtube debate from 2003 on war and particularly the beginning of the war in Iraq ...watch it this week and in a paragraph or two write down your thoughts about the discussion and opinions shared...
At some point this week, talk over with your family the issue of just war or ask, When is it right to go to war? or what does the Bible say on the subject of war?, etc...Jot down a few notes or thoughts on the discussion and bring them in for discussion next week...
Read to page 120 in your books and write your summary
