Usama's Links

The three links I chose for Banquo are all that would be general interest to him. If he were alive today, he would have frequently visited these sites, because they reflect his true passion, and general interest which is the country of Scotland and the Scottish army.



The first link I chose was a link to the Scotland national website. I chose this link because as we learn from the play, Banquo is quite a patriotic person. So if Banquo were alive today, he would definetely be visiting Scotland's official website to get the latest information on his beloved country, Scotland.

The second link I chose was a link to the Military of Scotland page on Wikipedia. As we know, Banquo is a military man himself and is truly passionate about the Scottish army. He put his life on the line to protect Scotland from the invading Norwegians. This website contains background information, history of wars, and the military capabilites of the Scots. If Banquo were alive, I am sure he would have frequented this site as it contains information on all that Banquo holds dear to him, the Scottish army.

The third link I chose was a link to a non-profit organization that helps wounded war veterans in Scotland. The organization is called "Combat Stress" and their main objective is to provide care and treatment to war veterans. Banquo himself was a military man, and he was also passionate about helping others. This would be the perfect site for Banquo, because by donating he can help military men like himself survive the struggles that come with being in a brutal war like the war in Afghanistan.
