Aid to Rebels CC4

Jill Dougherty and Michael Pearson wrote the article, "Western powers set to increase aid for Syrian rebels." They wrote this article to inform the people of what America is going to do to help the Syrian rebels.


" The United States promised Thursday to send food and medical supplies." We are going to send these supplies but no weapons. Under these circumstances we will be helping but not in such a dramatic way as to donate weapons and ammunition to these rebel forces in Syria.

"The United States' decision to take further steps now is the result of the continued brutality of a superior armed force propped up by foreign fighters from Iran and Hezbollah, all of which threatens to destroy Syria." We are just trying to take these steps to help Syrian Rebels where they need help. But we along with some of the other countries are pledging to help with this effort.

I completely agree with these steps that the U.S. and other countries have vowed to take on this action. We should be willing to help with other countries gaining their democracy.

South Korea Woman President CC3

Peter Shadbolt wrote"South Korea's president-elect faces tough challenges" to inform the reader. He wanted to inform us that Korea's new President is a woman. And that she cares about the people that she was elected by.

"South Korea's first female president Park Geun Hye will take office on Monday." I think that Park Guen Hye Twill make a fine President for Sout Korea. She is one of the first elected woman officials in such a high ranking enviorment.

"I have no family to take care of and no children to pass wealth to. You, the people, are my family and your happiness is the reason that I stay in politics." She guinuinly cares about her people, and her country. She unlike other elected officials are in the politics for a reason.

I think that having a woman for President could be a good think for such a harsh country as South Korea. Maybe this will help stop the evil raids that they have done in the past.
