War on (of?) Terror

I have signed up to be a Red Recruit for the Red Cross UK. :) Yay. Me doing something good :)

I just did my registration for modules in my 2nd and 3rd year and they will be (if they are accepted) the following (if people are interested):

Year 2
♫ Political Research and Analysis (compulsory)
♫ Ethics in International Relations
♫ Terrorism and Political Violence
♫ Foreign Policy Analysis and Management (Double size module)
♫ International Organisation: the UN System (compulsory)
♫ The Global Burden of Disease: Globalisation and International Health (Double size module)

Year 3
♫ Modern Classics of Comparative Politics (compulsory)
♫ Anthropology and Development
♫ Disasters
♫ International Environmental Politics (no other good options for this slot really)
♫ The US and Latin America
♫ International Conflict Analysis & Resolution
♫ Rights, Freedom, and Individualism: Contemporary Liberalism in Question
♫ Humanitarian Communication

Unfortunately, the only one they could offer about Africa is not available until 2012/13 - the year after I've (hopefully) graduated. :(

Today I went to a guest leacture/event where we watched the movie : "Outside the Law: Stories from Guantánamo Bay" where the co-maker of the movie (and the author of the book that the movie is based on) Andy and one of the prisoners, Omar, came for a Question session.
Very interesting, very sad, very horrific. >.< ;_; Watch it.

Me leaving now. Sad, powerless, panda. :(
