Every war is different, every war the same” (Cooper 52).  repeats another twice and same with war. It shows that he is maybe getting worn out about the same old things over and over]]> 2017-09-26 13:29:17 UTC https://padlet.com/TheEmiliSmith/h0gcecx51nkk/wish/191233111 TheEmiliSmith https://padlet.com/TheEmiliSmith/h0gcecx51nkk/wish/191369581 “His blood drips in a Jackson Pollock pattern next to a bloody sandal lying on the floor”(70).

This quote provides an example of parallelism which helps grab the reader's attention and keep them intrigued in the story. During this part of the story they are explaining what they see in Iraq and one thing is that if you look to hard at something then you may find more and more parts that will lead you in another direction that you do not want to go.]]> 2017-09-29 15:25:12 UTC https://padlet.com/TheEmiliSmith/h0gcecx51nkk/wish/192499717
