to supply electricity to cities in the late 1880s is often called the ’War of Currents ’‚ as this battle ultimately decided which type of current became the standard for the generation of electricity today. Due to different advantages and disadvantages‚ Edison promoted direct current (DC) for electric power distribution‚ whereas Westinghouse and Nikola Tesla both advocated alternating current (AC).

Iraq invasions The Iraq war was a horrible thing. It caused many things to happen. I’m against going to war with them because there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq as the US government claimed. One of the main reasons listed by George W Bush for the war was to secure Iraq’s chemical and biological weapons‚ which did not even exist. Secondly‚ there were no terrorists in Iraq‚ and Iraq had no connection to Sept. 11. We should have focused our resources in Afghanistan where the real terrorists

The Iraq War The Iraq war was an armed conflict in Iraq that consisted of two phases. The first was an invasion of Ba ’athist Iraq starting on 20 March 2003 by an invasion force led by the United States. It was followed by a longer phase of fighting‚ in which an insurgency emerged to oppose coalition forces and the newly formed Iraqi government.

United States and Britain and eventually led to the War of 1812. In a similar context‚ the Iraq War was also a direct response to the evidence supporting the fact that Iraq was connected to terrorist activities and the assumption that Iraq was hiding weapons of mass destruction. The US response to Russia in the Cold War is similar to the US response today and set the precedent for the Iraq War. Conclusively‚ both the War of 1812 and the current war in Iraq can be justified considering that the country

Throughout the years of fighting in Iraq‚ we have realized that we are there or no reason‚ and many people think we are stuck. In the beginning war I what we wanted and what we have started. Freedom is what a lot of Americans take for granted‚ and now they find less then what they really want. The war in Iraq was to bring freedom out to others and to give them the safety like us in America. I cannot say if that was the right thing to do or the smartest‚ but now that does not matter because we’ve

So taking into account the actions taken and how the war was conducted‚ we can better understand why America even initiated war with Iraq in the first place. To do so‚ a variety of theories and lenses must be used‚ in order to gain various perspectives on the question. Realism is the best theory of international relations that can be applied to this war. This perspective credits war to three things‚ opportunism‚ balance of power and security. (Creamer‚ 2012) In the case of opportunism‚ much can

10/29/07 An Inevitable War: Iraq [pic] “We may have had enough troops to win the war-but not nearly enough to win the peace.” (Philip Carter‚ 2003‚ p. 82) There is much debate going on in the U.S. about the war in Iraq. Some people argue that the U.S is fighting a war that it should never have started; others argue U.S. intervention on Iraq has created a war with no end and we should come home immediately. However‚ I strongly believe that the war in Iraq was an inevitable‚ justified war and that‚ from a
