The War on Terrorism

In The War on Terrorism, Joel Andreas demonstrates through a comic his political views. I understand that the writer's discontent for how the world we live in is run but sometimes we just have to stand by our government. It's a series of cause and effect, one country does damage to another and the next thing you know is a war has begun. Even though we all wish peace through out the world was possible the world is full of people with different views and beliefs that prohibit them from coming to any type of agreement.

All Actions Can Make an Impact

In the film Babel, we are able to witness how one action in one country can affect someone on the other side of the world. The film explores the Hispanic struggle in America, terrorist actions, and the Japanese culture. In Under the Sign of Mickey Mouse & Co. the American impact on the world is revealed. America has been a very powerful and culture mixed nation. Both of these publications have different purposes but show how humans are all alike and can influence each other, no matter how far the distance.
