Discuss the creation and evolution of al-Qaeda (25 pts.) The Creation of al-Qaeda officially begun during the Cold war around 1979 when Afghanistan was invaded by the Soviet Union. This became an issue for the United States, and the goal was to come up with a plan that involved pushing the Soviet union of out Afghanistan. The outcome of this event leads to the development of an organization for the international Muslim regiment that was formed to rebel against the invasion and eventually get the Soviet Union out. This Islamist organization was founded in 1988 by the famous Saudi Arabia native, Osama Bin Laden and others Islamic warriors.…
Hook - Try to envision an infamous organization that was known for slaughtering hundreds of thousands of innocent people. Men, women, and children alike. This organization committed hundreds of hate crimes against innocent individuals simply because they shared different moral values and beliefs. I am sure many of you are thinking that “ISIS” fits this description, but the organization that I am talking is Catholic Church in the eleventh century.…
Iraq and Syria have been in a civil war with Isis taking over a lot of their land and enforcing strong laws on the people living there. It states in the article “How far does ISIS Global Reach extend” that“ISIS militants have brought their hardline version of Islam to wide areas of Syria and Iraq, imposing brutal laws and killing people who they deem "unbelievers."(Mullen). This explains how Isis has killed many muslims who did not give in to their version of Islam. Muslims were killed and still are being killed because Isis has taken control of their countries, lives and if they try to impose their rules they simply end their lives. The words “Killing people they deem unbelievers” proves how Isis has affected the lives of muslims because it shows the brutal things isis has done to muslims because they do not follow their strict rules and even go as far to killing them to prove a point.…
Amena Mamoon Professor Mathews Western Civilization November 6, 2017 The novel “Defeating Jihad: The Winnable War” by Sebastian Gorka, is a novel that explains how the war on terror “is eminently winnable if we remove our ideological blinders, accurately name our enemy, and draw up a strategy to defeat the ideas that inspire terrorism.” (Gorka) I found this book to be slightly racist. As a Muslim, I understand what Jihad really means.…
This summer, my family and I traveled to Berlin, Germany to learn about my Jewish great grandparents’ experience during the Holocaust. After visiting the Topography of Terror, I have become interested in understanding how the Nazis could turn a democracy into a dictatorship. This trip made me question not only government’s actions of the past, but also my government’s actions today. It has made me look at the U.S. 2016 election differently. Most of all, my trip made me want to learn more about Europe in the 20th century.…
Isis: An Evil Bunch The terrorist organization Isis or “Islamic State in Iraq and Syria” is a name with which we have unfortunately heard of far too often. They have inspired and personally carried out inhumane acts around the world way too many times. Even though they are frequently talked about on the news and among the public, do we really know what they want? Isis inspired the attacks in my hometown of San Bernardino last December proving that they are a cancer which will only keep on spreading if they are not stopped.…
When I was your president, I told ISIS that if they attacked America on foreign or domestic land they would pay. Then two years into my term ISIS attacked Fort Benning Georgia. They killed over a two thousand people. Then I called the security council, my secratary of defence four star general John O’Neal. He told me to nuke the heck out of them, the council agreed.…
There are also contrasting differences: the Ottoman Empire accepted many different religions, nationalities, and ethnic groups into their territory. The Ottomans understood that a minimum of understanding and tolerance of everyone was needed for unification, however, this is something we do not observe in ISIS. In 2006, a Sunni Islam uprising began in Iraq against the Shia majority; this caused many terrorist groups to roll into Iraq, this…
The society that exists this day in time seems to thrive on controversy. As soon as one social justice problem is resolved, another problem surfaces. Chapter five and eight focus on the issues concerning the effects of current events and if Christianity can co-exist with Islam. The most current controversy unraveling in the world today is the latest terror attacks in Paris. ISIS has come forth and took responsibility in the horrid attacks.…
Essay about Isis- Alon Pardo- my fixed version Cronin (2015) claims that the best strategy to combat Isis is offensive containment: "a combination of limited military tactics and a broad diplomatic strategy to halt Isis expansion, isolate the group, and degrade its capabilities". In this essay I will explain my opinion regarding the preferred strategy to fight Isis. In my opinion, what may work for the benefit the US foreign policy is not necessarily good for the security of the state of Israel.…
“ A genocide begins with the killing of one man - not for what he has done, but because of who he is” (Kofi Annan). Isis is determined to take control of the world, there main target being the western culture, including their civilization and religious beliefs. Depending on the extremity of the attacks and killings, they are either classified as a genocide if they are more extreme, or questioned if they are not as major. The more extreme attacks and killings, can be proved in many ways as an act of genocide, where other acts are still being questioned. Isis is thought by many as a threat of genocide as other’s think it is just an act of terror.…

Because of this, it is hard to define what state terrorism really is and which classifications are needed to apply this concept.…
