One event that we should have paid attention was when the Assyrians captured about 6,000 hebrews and put them into to slavery. If we had taken that into concideration then we could have prevented the slavery issues that errupted with the African Americans taken from their native home of Africa.

The Assyerians used terror as a politicle weapon, If we had paid more attention to what they would do, perhaps that we would have been more aware for the 9/11 tragedy. We had no idea at all that we would be attacked. If we were ready than perhaps the tragedy could have been avoided.

Hello Colin my son, good to chat with you once again. It seems as though our opinions are very similar. Although I am not one to accuse, the similarities between our opinions are uncanny.

way to go col! way to bring current events into the classroom. i also beleieve that even though the events of the assyrians happened at such a long time ago it also could have infulenced terrorism that happened currently! i very much agree with you thought, very inteligent way of thinking it through!
good job! great addition to the the classes ideas!
