One of the similarities between these organizations is the merciless way of attacking against their target end. They are known for suicide attacks, kidnapping in exchange for prisoners. Hamas’ targets are random, civilians or non-military personals. It can be called blind terror. They lack confidence about hitting civilian targets and have no successful actions outside…

    Clouds of smoke were still rising into the air from the building’s location, and emergency vehicles and ambulances were racing down the coastline with their sirens blaring. The American Embassy had stood on the seafront from Soheil’s earliest memory, and he couldn’t imagine Beirut without it. As he moved closer to the building, it became apparent that it was the target of the attack and not just part of collateral damage. As shocking as the action was, Soheil wasn’t entirely surprised. The…

    The running force behind our country is the government. There are two main branches of that force and that is the democratic and republican parties. Both parties have some similarities, but they mainly have a lot of differences. The Republican Party was formed in 1854 by former Whig party members to try and stop the spread of slavery into the west. The Democratic Party was formed around 1828. The two Parties started out as a single party, with a common goal. As the years went past the Party…
