If history repeats itself because nobody pays attention the first time then alot of things would be different. For example the people of accient mesopotamia took better care of the first scriptures of the bible then now we would easliy be able to prove the bible true, because we would have written proof. If we paid attention to history then we would know to save important documents. Also we would be able to learned more about past cultures. Another instance is how the Assyrians used terror as a weapon. This is still true today, which we know is true from September 11th. If we learned about terror from the Assyrians then we wouldn't have september 11. The assyrians used terror but after a while they we unliked and lost their power. I think that it will happen agian.

If we had payed attention to how the Assyrians had used terrorism to scare the opposing empires when they were trying to take over Mesopotamia, then maybe terrorism wouldn't be so strong today. We could have foreseen problems with terrorism and tried to eliminate it before it became a real problem. Then maybe the attack on September 11th might have been prevented and we wouldn't be having a war with terrorism right now.
