War
Casey Bumpass, Grant Adams, Bryan Jenkins, Jack Williamson
Good reasons to go to war for USA
- If we are attacked first (terrorism)
- If we are directly threatened by a nuke
- if they have hostages or threatening US citizens
- to help out allies who are in danger
Reasons to avoid war
- cost money
- put our troops lives in danger
- possible retaliation from other countries
Draft soldiers? Yes or No...
- Yes in times like WWII and when it is absolutely needed
Just wars
- WWI & II- We had to help out our allied nations and stop tyrants from advancing.
- Mexican American war- To help Texas and we got a lot of land out of it
- War on Terror- tried to eliminate terrorism
- American Revolution- Gained independence from Britain
- TX Revolution- Texas did not want to be controlled by mexico
- War of 1812- We had to keep Britain from attacking our ships and kidnapping our soldiers.
Unjust wars
- US Vs Native Americans- we had already done enough to the indians
- Korean War- thousands were killed
- Vietnam War- millions died and we didn't gain anything
- Civil War- We were fighting our brothers and friends, and we didn't really free the slaves they were still discriminated
