My Thesis:

War is something that many people are unable to grasp and gain an understanding of; its effects are often overlooked. Sean Huze’s stance against the Iraqi war is broadcasted in his monologues thoroughly.

Why is this a good thesis?

I believe my thesis is arguable, some individuals may believe Huze is in support of the current war in Iraq. I am able to support my thesis using examples from the text and I feel as though it is original and stays right to the main point of my essay.
