The United States was attracted to the Middle East due to the containment…

It took me 40 years to become a Jew. When I was a child, I wasn’t a Jew and not only because I never went to a synagogue. My father’s family had abandoned their religion so he wasn’t Jewish. More to the point, my mother and my grandmother weren’t Jewish either, so according to orthodox Judaism’s principles of matrilineal descent, it was impossible for me to be a Jew. All I had was the “Cohen” name. I once asked my parents why they had not changed it. After saying, quite rightly, that you should…

116,074 people have been killed through the Palestinian-Israeli conflict (Jewishvirtuallibrary.com). Britain is responsible for the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, because they didn’t thoroughly plan how to govern the area in dispute. This is shown through the various treaties they made during WW1 and the lack of control during their mandate. In 1915, the British under the McMahon agreement to King Hussein promised the Arabs the land they had lived in before the Turks came, in exchange for a…

Jimmy Carter was one of the most commonly known U.S presidents, and like all presidents, Jimmy Carter exemplified the roles as the overseeing leader.
