Summary: In northern Iraq city, Hawija, on Wednesday, Attackers shot 10 people that are related to the government. Attackers attacked City Council offices and a police station with a bomb in two cars and also mortar rounded gun.They killed 10 employees when they attacked the City Council office. Security officers later crashed with the attackers and at least three officers was wounded. Iraq has been harassed Sunni-Shiite frictions for several years. The apprehension began to intensify after an April event in Hawija.

Opinion: This is a sad event. I do not know why Iraq has been harassed Sunni-Shiite, but that caused the attackers to attack the City Council and kill 10 employees and wounded more than three police officers. It is too sad that many people are dying these days. I wish there is no more dying in the world.

September 11, 2013 -- Updated 0558 GMT (1358 HKT)

Summary: Many Americans will fall silently for the 12th consecutive September 11. 2,977 people was killed by the terrorists, beginning with the airplane crashing the north tower of the World Trade Center. It became a tradition that family's victims read the names of their loved ones at the 9/11 Memorial Plaza in New York. Political figures will not speak at the ceremony. 

Opinion: It was a terrible disaster happened in U.S. I feel very sorry for the victim's families every time it becomes 9/11. I wish this kind of event never happens again in any world. So many people died. They have several different ceremonies and there is a time limit on it. I think this is thoughtful. I would never forget this horror time period.

Americans turn in passports as new tax law hits

Americans turn in passports as new tax law hits

Summary: The number of Americans are choosing to give up their citizenship has dramatically increased as the government made a new law to eliminate the stamping out tax evasion. Some might give up their citizenship to avoid this law, and some might give up their citizenship by becoming tired of overly complexed tax collection while they are in other countries. Unlike other country does, United States taxes citizens on all income. 

Opinion: I think the government did well on making a new law. It is for the citizens who are not that worthy and rich. Like Warren Buffet said, "If anything, taxes for the lower and middle class and maybe even the upper middle class should even probably be cut further. But I think that people at the high end - people like myself - should be paying a lot more in taxes. We have it better than we've ever had it." we people should change their perspectives of the taxing problem.
