the iranian president

The iranian president has gotten himself into a bunch of trouble with some important people from other countries. He caused about fifty different delegates to walk out on a conference that had to deal with racism. He also said that the holocaust didn't happen. that made many people even more angry with him. He does not have very many people on his side.
I personally think that he is a horrible president. He is making a lot of mistakes that are causing a lot of people not to like him anymore. I don't understand how he could say that the Holocaust didn't happen when there is so much evidence to prove that it did happen. There are even witnesses still living to prove it. And how can he afford to let fifty delegates just walk out on a conference. That just doesn't make sense to me at all.

Islamic rallies

Today we watched a video about islamic rallies. In these rallies, they yelled death to America and England and Jews. They are taught at a young age to hate certain groups. Groups they are told to hate would be groups as the Jews and westerners. They're cartoons advertise killing the Americans or Jews. They also have made songs that descriminate other races. They are taught in every grade to hate everyone of another race. They are taught that the greatest gift they could give their god allah is to give up your life for him. They use children as sacrifices sometimes also.
This was the first time I have ever seen any kind of video like this. It really gets me because I know that it is real. It also wakes me up to the reality in other countries and what their everyday lives are like. I think it is wrong how they sacrifice their own lives. I also don't like how they have to make cartoons and songs and jingles for children to teach them to hate everyone else who isn't the same race or religion as they are.

Online Dating

Online dating is a serious risk to take. More than half of the people today lie about their true identity. Their picture they post up may not be their real picture. Their personal info or interests may not be their real information or their real interests. They then plan to meet up with them and put themselves in a serious situation.
I think online dating is a wrong thing to do. I would never want to risk my life meeting someone in person who I've been talking to over the internet when I do not truely know if it is them or not. Even if I did end up meeting up with them and they didn't look like they're picture I would definately say something right away.
