Progressive Thinker

After asking my family about being a progressive thinker, they told me that it meant to be progress towards everything. An example about my country that is Israel. Israel is making an enormous progress in anti terrorism and also a progress in evryting of daily life. Israel is only 61 years old and it is a developed country so we can see that it is a big progress. Also Israel is in ceased fire with palestine for the moment and I hope they will not continue the war because they have killed many people but it is not their fault.

Imperialism in United States of America

Imperialism started in the late 1800s in the US and since then the US has been influencing many other countries in political, economic and cultural ways. The effect of USA imperialism has been positive because countries like Panama and Phillipines became democracies. I think that the US did a great job in the countries that they colonized. In Panama the US did build the Panama Canal and it is useful to both countries since. In Phillipines the US did a great job by going there because now it became an englophone country and it is a democracy. I think that the US did also a great job in Porto Rico because it also became a democracy and they helped the Puerto Ricans from death with the Spanish.

What Have I Learned From The Socratic Seminar

The Socratic Seminar did help me in many ways and I think did learn to all the class a new way of teaching ideas to each other. From this Socratic Seminar we did learn from each other point of view.

During the Socratic Seminar I have learned:

• A new way of teaching ideas to each other
• How to share our ideas
• We learned each other point of view on every question

This are the most helpful ideas that I learned from the Socratic Seminar

US And UN Struggle To Distribute Haiti Aid

About 20 American military Black Hawk helicopters have descended on the ruined grounds of Haiti’s presidential palace.Troops unloaded equipment, water and food rations, raising hopes that it would become a forward base for the distribution of aid.Since the earthquake a week ago, Haitians desperate for life’s basics, and frustrated by the lack of aid reaching them, have posed an increasing headache for security services.Overstretched UN peacekeepers dispersed a crowd of survivors who were searching for anything, from water to a mat to sleep on.The Haitian police too have had their work cut out as lawlessness spreads throughout the capital Port au Prince. Shots rang out as scores of Haitians raided a destroyed hardware shop. And to help bring some semblance of normality back to Haiti’s streets, the UN Security Council has unanimously agreed to send 3.500 more troops and police in the hope they will afford some relief to the security forces already there.
