are being forced to become child soldiers, and they are the ones that are victims of pain, war, death, and suffering.

To begin with, child soldiers are victims and deserve amnesty…

the truth of many soldiers who have fought daily to keep peace in our own country. Our country involves itself in issues to help achieve overall tranquility in this world.

It starts with a child. By the age of three, these young, bound-to-be soldiers, are being taught how to hold a gun by the tip of their fingers. It’s common amongst countries that hold poverty or places where war breaks out through every corner. This is an endless supply of children, fighting as if adults. They don’t know any better; they’re children. However, does this mean they should be given amnesty? Or has empathy taken over our hearts and manipulated our minds to think these children should…

The idea of child soldiers is illegal, but, in a span of ten years, 19 million children have been scarred by a war they were in (Child Soldiers: Invisible Children 1). This dates back to WWII, when the Nazi’s got desperate, then in Iran in the 1980’s, boys were made to clear minefields, and even right now, the Tailban uses them as suicide bombers (Gettleman 2). If most children play on soccer fields, then why should some of them have to clear minefields? One side feels they’re victims of war,…

Aaron Schneider’s short film version of the Two Soldiers is consistent with the short story up until these final…

Hemingway’s Soldiers Home brings many question to us as the readers of what exactly does the title mean and what the soldier is and what the soldier has become. Hemingway portrays a setting in which the soldier is trapped and no longer can escape due to past experiences and drastic changes in his life. Harold Krebs also referred to as “Hare”, “Harold”, and “Krebs” is a hard fighting solider who fought for his country and now is suffering after coming home. He who served for his country out of…

Drones: Not the Perfect Soldier Imagine a world where all our soldiers are at home with there wife and kids; they do not need to go overseas to fight in wars and we are no longer losing our loved ones due to war violence because we have soldiers that are not human but robots. This sounds pretty darn nice, doesn 't it? Killer robots are the ideal soldier; they do not need food or water, they do not need to stop and rest, they do not need long training programs, and they do not need to sleep at…
