What would make me decide to go to war against another country is if they started invading us or saying bad things about my country.

Some similarities are they would decide to go to war with Great Britain if they started to invade the country.

I see some similarities in the section's opener, because some people think that if someone for the other country tries to steal something then they would decide as president to go to war with that country.

Shane hart said...

A similarity between the posts from the opener is that a lot of the people that posted said something like "I would only go to war if some one started attacking us"

Thai McCowan said...

The only similarities are that they would go to war if something happen to them first

deion moss said...

A similarity would be the state was in dept.

Kevin Neri said...

Some similar answers i noticed were if the other country attacked first.

Kdaitlyn said...

I say that the comment and the u.s both think that if the country is being invaded by others.

keith said...

some similarities are are because we would be attacked and could try to take over our country.

Breannaragin said...

If i was president of the united states .I will go to war with used me for my goods and our ides.

megablogger said...

The similarities I see between the students post and US's decision is they said that if another country would tried to take over,threatened to, or harm someone important in their country would cause them to go to war.

kaleb brown said...

The US we to war because Great Britain sent spies to us.I think when my classmates say that they would start war if Great Britain were traveling to invaded them.I think that Great Britain sent spies to us to know what we are doing.

mariahsalyers said...

I think the reasons people posted like terrorism and people needing to defend themselves are reasons why some presidents would choose to go to war with another country.

Paige Mckenzie said...

There is alot of similarities that people said they would do if they would go to war. Alot of people said that one of the main reasons they would go to war with another country is if another country was to harm their country or the people of their country. Another reason is if another country had something they wanted & wouldnt give it to them then they would go to war.

dayna wickersham said...

that the president would go to war with Britain if they were not letting people from our country over or trade with them.

Emani Thompson(: said...

Yes, there are some similarities between reasons that students posted and reasons why they decided to go to war. Some of those similarities are that everyone would got to war if a country tried to destroy there country or try and invade it .( :

Singketonj said...

Most of the comments said that the would go to war with another country because if they were saying bad things about there country.

Kyra(: said...

The US wanted war with great Britain to get their rights and more land. What makes them want a war is to get their rights and more land for them so they don't go into debt or get weaker.

Adriana J. said...

Similarities between reasons the students decided to go to war and reasons the U.S decided to go to war is if they invaded their country or if they thought their country was week and they thought they could gain more power by taking over.

Payton brown said...

The similarities are they all want to protect us from other countries and from takeing advantage of the USA

brandon schon said...

some similarities are to protect us from another country invading us.

Cunningham, Willie said...

yes i did see similarities,the similarities were that the US went to war because they felt thretend by the british and the students wrote they would go to war if they were attacked.

julz said...

in most of the posted comments almost everyone said that they would go to war because of what condition there citizens were in what there citizens feel like , like if they felt they were being mistreated in someway. That's how britain got into war with the united state's because britain didn't know that they were being betrayed by the u.s and that they were trading with france(the country they hate) and that they were double dipping, going behind both there back's

croberson said...

similarities are to stop other country's from invading us. another reason is they tried to threatend us.

james dean said...

if i was the presedent i would not let my country because it would cost money

Deairrez d said...

Dantreece M said...

No i don't see any similarities.

The students responses were the same because they said they would all go to war if the country was attacked first, terrorism was going on, or if the united states felt threatened, or to help better the country.

malika h said...

some similarities are that some people said that they would want to send there group to war if there group is a little stronger then the others!!:)

Ash-alala. (: said...

Cause were all in the same class learing the same thing, so were going to say the same thing.

Mike said...

What would make me decide to go to war is if were not in debt.

Tehya Quinones said...

My response was if the other country were to threaten my country in some way. Britain was threatening America's rights. That's why they went to war, to protect their rights.

P. Raines said...

A few things that would make me go to war is that someone might be trying to steal my land or because of terrorism and haters!!! I would have thought that my people needed to be brave and sacrifice for their country!!! Rather than being sissies and staying behind and waiting for the outcome!!!!

AStamper(: said...

Most people in our class said they would go to war with Great Britain if they tried to steal land. That is one reason we started to go to war with Great Britain.

Megan horne said...

I think we went to war with great Britain because of terrorism when I look at the other peoples comments I see that said they would go to war if they were threatened or terrorism was going on or to help better united states or if they got attacked first.

malika howard said...

some similarities are that some people said they wanted to change the taxes on things and take over there land!!!!:)

Keleigh lape said...

The reason we went to war with Britain was because Britain was "getting on Americas nerves".

shawntaze said...

jah bell said...

the similarities of the reasons for going to war are usually "because they posed a threat to their country"
or something like that.

Breana N. Murray said...

I would probably not let my country go into war w. Another country because we as a nation nee to stay strong and stick together no matter what and if we were too go too war then It would probably be something that we need too do . !

Kaitlynn said...

If they started invading us or saying bad stuff about your country.that r people r weak and I would learn how to fight in the war.

kbin said...

They will start invading us and saying bad things about the country.

jessica meguire said...

i do think that some of the other comments were similar because alot of people said they would only go to war if they were being attacked first or if the country was causing threat to the civilians

gavin said...

They all are about going to war

Unknown said...

A lot of people said that they would go to war if threatened well I said that as well and I agree we also went to war cause they threatened us.

Ems said...

What would make me want to make my country go to war is so they could fight for our country!

matt paluga said...

they both said that the wanted to exspand but a bad thing is we would be in debt.

Kaylyn Smith said...

Some similarities for reasons why were the US decided to go to war with Great Britian are they were weak and could not defend there selves and they needed to fight for there land.

Raelynn Hopkins said...

The similarities between the reasons that the students posted and the reason why the US decided to go to war with Great Britain is we invaded Great Britain,Canada, and North American.

Marilyn Dews said...

Some people would go to war for ''unlawful imprisonment'' or ''trash talking their country'' or the aquisition of land rights. As it turns out so would the founding fathers and american delagates whom concluded that another war with britain was our only real option. BTW: sorry, my spelling isn't the best. :P

DYLAN TRITT said...

we went to war with britain because in a message he cited"the spectacle of injuries and indignities which have been heaped on our country. some similarities with the other questions were that they would go to war if enemy dissed our country.

Unknown said...

I did see simularitys of why the class would go to war and why the U.S. Went to war in 1812. One of the major reasons we would both go to war is if another country attaked citizens of our country for no reason. And if that country conspired to take our land and our freedom.

WoOlLy AwEsOmEnEsS!!!!! XD said...

Some simularties I see from other people is that they will only go to war if someone attacks them first. In other words they are all being defensive, and they attack for very rational reasons that make sense in my mind. Like if they need resources, workers, and also to expand more. The expanding part sounds stupid and dangerous to me.

braydon west said...

yes i see some similarities as they threatend or way of life .

Darion Carter said...

No Because , What They Posted Doesn't Have Anything To Do With Why The US Decided To Go To War With The Great Britian . They Posted How They Run The Country . ! & No I Don't See Similarities .

Courtney Marie. said...

I think because the either wanted freedom or the other country attacked first is the only way their country would go to war.

Cmahan said...

I think that the similarities are that people need to fight for there country.I agree with em because if they do no fight for what they have, they will loose them.

Thao Nguyen said...

A similarity would be if the state was in dept. Something like that would make a country decide to go to war.

Mr. Warner said...

Julian, That is a great answer. Good Job.

Sir Brian bishop said...

The similarities are that people say they if they were attacked they would go to war but if not they were not attack they would remain mutual with other countries.

Breana N. Murray said...

I believe That The Similarities Are That Most Believe Say And Never Ever Do , Thats A Similarity So Maybe They Would Go Too War , ! I Don't Know . ?

Kevin Smith said...

People only really go to war, if they are attacked.

Morgan Baldwin said...

Some similarites are that they got into war nn tried take over our country.

Tikqua Marie Ervin said...

A Similarity Is When Alot Of People Said That They Would Only Go To War With Someone If They Started Attacking Them First .

Khaalid said...

The US wanna to go to war with Britan because the wanted independence from them. That's why I think they were in war together .

Chris said...

Jazmen Taylor said...

Scott,Rodney said...

The simularities are that they claim land so that they get stronger not weaker.

- Carrie Lindsay said...
