This is the type of thing we should have been doing from the start of the deployment...

For clarification (as was mentioned already), this was taken from my Gr.12 history class. These were totally off the cuff comments; we've never spoken of this in class (as it has nothing to do with our curriculum). As I mentioned, I will be making time for some discussion next week as I'd like to know where they are coming from. I'll report back.ballz said:It was scary reading some of those answers... University students using internet lingo on their answers? This is why I always insist on producing the final product on group projects. I take everybody's piece and translate it to English.
As for their answers.... a little too cliche for my liking. They've plagiarized their opinions from someone else who's probably less intelligent than them.
This peacekeeping thing drives me nuts, more so than all the mentioning of Iraq and just doing what the US tells us to. Honestly, this is pure gold:
"I consider us peacekeepers, which I think is better. The closer we are to no military the closer we are to world peace."
He/She wants peacekeepers but wants no military. Seriously?!?! This reminds me of my friend's dad, a musician, who has absolutely CONDEMNED me for joining the CF, but has a song dedicated to Peacekeepers called "The Keeper's."
Yes, this was mentioned quite a bit (since I only included some selected answers). It was actually interesting to read some of the answers and see contradictory statements ie. "we're peacekeepers", but in the next question "we fight for peace." This is why (even though it has nothing to do with the course) I'm curious to hear what they have to say about all of this.Greymatters said:The phrase “fights for peace” seems to be the general theme here…
