Why do we fight?

Kaylene: Why do we fight? That's a good question, but does it only have one answer?

Angela: Well Kay what I know about that question is that people fight for many reasons such as money, power, land, respect, love and many more. Do you remember when we studied the Spanish American war and why the U.S and Spain fought each other?

Kaylene: Yes. I do remember. Spain wanted to take over Cuba's' land and gain power over it, but the U.S wasn't trying to have that because Cuba had something, like sugar, that the U.S needed and was investing from. Hm what else went down?

Angela: Um well Spain was accused of blowing up The Maine during the time when Cubans were put into concentration camps, killing American soldiers that were on board. However some managed to survive, and Spain took it upon themselves to save those soldiers. It came to a conclusion that The Maine blew up by an accident and it wasn't caused by Spain.

Kaylene: Oh, but President McKinley still declared war on Spain not taking their sympathy at all.

Angela: What do you think should've happened instead of declaring war Kay?

Kaylene: I think McKinley should've handled the situation more appropriately like trying to compromise instead of taking a violate path, but hey people fight for different reasons right Angie?

Angela: Yea Kay, your right, but anyways um what would you rather fight for?

Kaylene: Something more serious and that has a point behind it. Fight because I have to not because I want to.
