Hamas was founded in…

Case Study – The CIA’s Rendition, Detention, and Interrogation Program The most recent, publicly acknowledged example of a covert action program with dubious moral footing is the Rendition, Detention and Interrogation program (RDI), authorized by President George W. Bush in the days following the terrorist attacks of 9/11. In 2009 by Executive Order, President Obama ended the CIA program and prohibited the use of Enhanced Interrogation Techniques (EITs), including water-boarding. The President…

This reading begins with talking about a specific event that happened during 911. An American Indian scholar named Ward Churchill publishes a controversial essay that saying all the victims in 9/11 were “little Eichmanns” (Kelly, 2016, p.240) and points out that, “9/11 attacks were provoked by decades of American military conquest in the Middle East” (Kelly, 2016, p.240).

Invasion of Iraq In 2003 Iraq has been the focus of the international community and has been featured prominently in the media in recent times. America’s interest grew after WWII because of oil. The United States was Iraq’s biggest guest, through the oil-for-food program. Before the United States invaded Iraq in 2003, Iraq’s domestic oil was fully nationalized and closed to oil companies. Later that year, it was privatized and dominated by foreign firms. Oil was not the only goals of the Iraq…

This term ‘Rogue States’ are primarily associated with the Clinton administration. Rogue States (or ‘backlash’ states) are those “recalcitrant and outlaw states that not only choose to remain outside the family of nations but also assault it’s basic values” (Lake 1994:45).

A supplement you might ask, yes, but an award winning supplement and supplement, I believe in name alone. There can be no…

The speech was directed primarily to the American people, and secondary to the world. During President Donald Trump's inaugural speech, some of the words used and the order in which he used them, I believe…
