 * Title: Iraq War I-Search

Part I--What I already know about my topic ** There is a war going on in Iraq where thousands of people lost their lives. The war started when George Bush was president. It is still continuing in Iraq. I don't know a lot about the war in Iraq but I want to learn.

I want to know Iraq's reason for fighting in the war, and I want to know when it started, why it started, and how it started. I also want to know what weapons are involved in the war, I know that the ak-47 is. I want to fully understand why this war started and I want to see if the war is worth the deaths that happen everyday.
 * Part II--What I Want to Find Out **

​ I searched about the Iraq war, and I went to this website, []. This website has a lot of information, and it was hard to find exactly what I wanted to find. It talks about 9/11, and the history of the Iraq War. Although there was a lot of information, I found out almost all the stuff I wanted to find out, except for the weapons that were used in the war. I have also read a book that is called Iraq. The book has no info on the Iraq War, but it tells about the enchantments of Iraq, like their culture, their museums, and their geography. I couldn't find any information about how the Iraq War was started, and what weapons were used in the Iraq War. It is definitely much harder then I thought to get information. I will research more and see if I can find the information I need to find. I found another web site [|Here] This told me that the price of the Iraq War was a lot and told about how so many soldiers died because of how bad the war was. Now they are only about 95,000 soldiers in Iraq.
 * Part III--The Search **

I have recently been on another website to see if I could find what weapons are used in the Iraq War. The citation is (Ritter, Scott. "Iraq War- Weapons." // Iraq //// War- Weapons //. Cosmopolitan University, n.d. Web. 22 Apr 2010.[]. Thank fully, I found some information about the helicopters that were used like the cobra, and the AC-130. I learned that missiles like the Predator Missile was used in the war. This is perfect, I found a lot of information about the Iraq War. I am really happy because I just got a lot of questions away. I talked to Jackie and Genii about an interview about a soldier in war. Hopefully that could happen. Questions that I am thinking of asking Jackie's grandfather, and I plan to ask him these questions over the week-end because I have no time right now to do that. Here are the questions.

1. When you were in World War 2, what did you experience?

2. What weapons did you use when you were fighting in World War 2?

3. What were you in World War 2, Navy (Ships), Army , Air Force?

4. What goals did you have to accomplish in order to be where you were then?

5. What was the point in being in the war? What inspired you to be in the Army?

Through this experience, found out a lot about the Iraq War, like the history, and the weapons that were used in the Iraq war. I wasn't able to conduct an interview because there is no one around me that was in war or in the Iraq war. Still I learned a lot about the Iraq war, and how it really started in 1991. Also, 9/11 was also a factor that contributed to a bigger war. Also, the war is still going on, and very powerful bombers and weapons like the ak-47 and the ac-130 is being used in the Iraq War. I certainly learned a lot more then I learned from the beginning when I didn't know about anything from the Iraq War. It was both fun and interesting to learn about the Iraq War. This is my I-Search.
