Movie vs. Book

The difference between the movie and book were plentiful. The first difference I spotted was that the beast of England song was changed. Then Old major was shoot by accident where as in the book he died in his sleep. There is no clover in the movie but Jessie does her part. In the book mollie left and joined another farm while in the movie she stayed.

Script

In 1978 the Vietnamese came and overthrow the Khmer Rouge. Then many of the Khmer rouge's warriors retreated into Thailand. The warriors were backed up by the U.S and England. In Thailand they were giving food and relief by the USA. The USA supported them because of there common hate of Vietnam . Vietnam tried to established a government and a economy but this was impossible as Pol Pot policies had any one educated or professional dead.By this time the Khmer rouge were recollecting and making there way back into Cambodia with the USA funding them. The Vietnamese army had at this point no other choice but to retreat. The USA was funding the Khmer Rouge and there own funder, Russia had quit. The last of Vietnam's troops left in 1989. In this small period of time in which Khmer Rouge had been overthrown and came back, 65,000 people had been killed. The total amount of civilians estimated to have been killed by Pol Pot's tyranny is more than 2 million. Soon Cambodia returned to it's old laws like the ability to own land or religion. Although the genocide had ended the terrors of it did not. In 1995 many mass graves were uncovered which were Pol Pot's killing fields!

Animal Farm: what character am I?

I would be more like the hens. My Reasons are: that when the hens were told that they would lose their eggs they rebelled, as they found this injust( pg. 51 animal farm) For them the whole point to getting rid of humans was that they could lay their eggs and hatch them. Just like the chickens i too would rebel against the slowly growing corruption of the pigs.

Forced Military

In my countries, India and USA both do not require military service although they both encourage it. If my country forced me join the army I would consider it injustice and a blow to my rights. I believe when it comes to risking lives every man and woman has the right to choose. I could not join the army as I just know it not what I want. But I still do admire those who decide to risk their own lives to defend there country. It takes a lot of bravery and discipline for that!
