Editorial #2

With the new Israeli government, conflict has arisen. President Obama is continuing in his promise to increase diplomacy with the middle east, attempting to make peace between the nation of Israel and their enemies in Gaza. For now peace has been stabilized, prisoners on both sides released, and more war efforts are underway. Hopefully, the peace around the Gaza strip will continue for the next 18 months.

This week the financial crisis is worsening. The banks are heading in a downward spiral and something needs to be done to fix it. The passing of the multi billion dollar stimulus bill next week will hopefully loosen lending and stabalize the American economy, while creating new jobs and opportunities at the same time. Many republicans oppose this bill, but it is key to the revival of this economy. The long term effects will show in a mere few months.
