Avatar

Today in Citizenship class we watched the movie Avatar.

Jake's colleagues wanted to destroy the tree that the Navi people lived in because they wanted the "cheese" that laid under the tree. The "cheese" was a type of mineral that is called unobtanium. Jake's colleagues knew that they were about to destroy the Navi's habitat but they didn't care. All they wanted was the unobtanium. The geologists there told the marines about the tree being the Navi's habitat but they chose to ignore it.

It was also the same in America, when the Europeans came and conquered everything.

Today, the war in Iraq is also the same.
