Facts of the World

In class on Friday, we explored the CIA website with facts everyone found interesting. I went up to the front and showed everyone the islands I explored on the website. I talked about the military systems and its main government focusses. Many other people went up to present their facts that they had found for homework the night before. Some that I found interesting were the ones concerning Africa's struggling with the disease of HIV. Mr. Schick told us that this could most likely be because the people living in these countries didn't have the means of protection from this disease. Woman that get this disease and have children the child usually doesn't live past their first birthday. Then we explored the country of Syria which is going through a horrible event called Isis. Isis was caused by the people of Syria trying to over throw their leader and he got angry and is now punishing them. The people of Syria are getting bombed and beheaded by their own country's leader. This is why the country's migration rate is at its all time high because people are trying to get out of there as fast as they can. The United States actually stopped a 911 like terrorist attack that was almost caused by people that support Isis. We were so angry at Syria for this attempt that we pounded the country as hard as we could with bombs. I think that the world needs to be more aware of this event that's happening right now and how important it actually is. We need to find a way to stop this horrible murder spree dead in its tracks
