"Many have often criticized the Presidents executive decision
to order airstrikes on Iraq, such as Arizona senator John McCain. According to
McCain the airstrikes on Iraq are “clearly very, very ineffective, to say the
least”. (McCain, 2014) However, Iraqi Foreign Minister, Hoshyar Zebari had this
to say, “Air strikes are intended to degrade the
terrorists' capabilities and achieve strategic gains — and have been very
effective,”(Hoshyar, 2014) Also other countries have been the opposite of
critical, they have been supportive and an active participant in the effort.
“British forces are coordinating aid drops with the U.S. and more broadly,
trying to figure out how to help the refugees escape from "’a completely
unacceptable situation,"’ British Defense Secretary Philip Hammond said”.
(Salama, 2014) According to the information above, the airstrikes are proven to
be effective at eliminating the threat and the in doing so they will help us
reach our goal to win the war on terror by shrinking ISIS."
1) I selected this paragraph because I feel that this really proves the point that I am trying to make in that I had opinions from two different sides of the issue, good quotes, and a good reasoning.
2) My biggest concern is that I wont be able to make this into a 10 page essay.
