Based on Political Decision Making Models

Introduction For many years, the United States and its allies have been hunting for justice. Numerous bombings and terrorist attacks were recorded not just in the United States alone, but also in many countries around the world. Most of these attacks were being blamed against the terrorist network groups that are all connected to one leader: Osama Bin Laden. He was the United States’ and the world’s most wanted person because of the numerous destabilizations and bomb attacks that claimed many innocent lives. He was the leader who provoked his terrorist network group to spread his teachings by ...

The war on terror has been one of the most expensive battles to burden the United State of America economy. In the most recent decades, the war has been waged against terrorist groups like the al Qaeda and the Taliban. The main challenge on the fight against the al Qaeda group is the lack of a central region of operation and use of guerilla war tactics. The group is spread in Afghanistan, Pakistan and some part of Africa. The 11th September 2001 twin tower attacks on the United State soil saw President George .W. Bush officially declare war on ...

In the late 1980s, Osama bin Laden gathered together a small group of trusted individuals he had been fighting with against the Soviet in Afghanistan to discuss their future after the withdrawal of Russian troops. From that fateful meeting, bin Laden formed al Qaeda. In the year since that meeting, al Qaeda would grow into the one of the world’s largest and most lethal international terrorist organization; an organization that would go on to perpetrate some of the most devastating terrorist attacks in modern history and make bin Laden, “the most wanted man on the Earth”. What was ...

On May 2, 2011, the US Navy SEALs performed an operation that led to the assassination of Osama bin Laden. There are photos of his body, but they have not been released to the American public, despite many people’s requests to the contrary. However, there are many good reasons to not release the images. The photos of Osama bin Laden should not be released, due to their gruesome nature, the insensitivity of the act, and the absolute lack of political gain.

The image of Osama bin Laden’s death is too ...

ABSTRACT

Suicide bombing and other forms of terrorism are tactics, not goals or strategies, and since the Afghanistan War began in 1979, the main political, religious and ideological purpose of men like Osama bin Laden and Anwar al-Awlaki was to overthrow the regimes in Muslim countries that were allied with the Western powers and restore the medieval Islamic Caliphate based on Sharia law. They used terrorist methods at any time and in any countries that they thought would best accomplish their overall purpose, and also searched for countries in Africa, East Asia, the Middle East and Central Asia where they ...

Ethics: War on Terrorism In the aftermath of the September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, Americans pondered the thought that the war on terrorism is unjust. Many Americans believe that our government’s reasons for fighting this war are for money, greed, and oil reserves. But truth be told and if Americans and the world at large could consider the interests and safety of the wider society against the terror groups, then there could be no question as to why America is so serious about the post 9/11 war on terrorist ...

While there are many different types of organizations, there are certain characteristics which permeate all organizations. Such characteristics cut across the various sectors in which organizations belong. The primary characteristic that is common to all organizations is that they all have goals which they seek to achieve. Indeed, all the activities of an organization usually revolve around these goals. This is similarly the case when it comes to organizations that are involved in business activities. While they may have many other goals, the principal goal of any business organization is to increase its profitability while at the same time ...

Transportation costs for waste disposal are the most expensive part of your annual waste disposal costs. Along with that comes the noisy clanking of garbage trucks dumping the contents of the garbage bins into their truck’s garbage container and the mess around garbage bins on the street that never seems to stay picked plus the wear and tear on the streets. There are already some intriguing solutions being used in South Korea (by 1.3 million people), in Barcelona and in Wembley, England.

Eventually, plays themselves would be filmed, turning the audience who still enjoyed the theatrical/film mix "low-class" (Lee ...

Introduction

9/11 is the expression that has been dedicated to the 2001 terrorist attacks by Al-Qaeda that the United States suffered from on September 11. It is true that 9/11 became a turning point for the George W. Bush administration. In addition, it also affected the United States' foreign policy.The events unswervingly led to the United States support for the downfall of Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan where it was believed to have its foundation (Thompson, 2004). These attacks were also important as they were later used by the United States of America as a justification of invading Iraq regardless of the ...

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is a country in the Middle East with a population of 3.1 million people. Over the last 30 years, the UAE has experienced rapid socio-cultural changes that have been brought about by the growing economy of the Arabian Gulf Region due to the discovery of oil (Bin Zaal, Musaiger & D’Souza 2009).

There have been significant changes in food choices leading to a “nutritional transition” (Al-Haddad, Al-Nuaimi, Little & Thabit, ...

Asymmetric warfare involves a manner of thinking, organizing, and acting that is different from the opponent (Patterson 2002). This enables one to maximize their own advantages or exploit the weaknesses of their enemies. It involves the use of new capabilities that are not perceived or understood by the enemies. They enable one to counter or exceed the enemies’ capabilities or consist of capabilities that involve entirely new methods of defense or attack. According to Carter (2012), asymmetric warfare is a “war between combatants whose relative power differs significantly or whose strategies or tactics differ significantly” (Carter 2012, second paragraph). ...

Introduction

The 9/11 Attack has been regarded as one of the major events in the history of America. This attack killed and maimed more people inside United States boundaries in a day than any other event since the historic Pearl Harbor attack. Notably, those who died in the horrific carnage in Pennsylvania, Washington and Manhattan on 11th Sept were the most direct victims of the terror attack. Many more people were killed in the subsequent “war on terror”. Arguably, several essential facts regarding 9/11 attacks were obvious; i.e. the attack was an act of mass murder where more than three ...

Introduction

The word terrorism does not have a universally accepted definition. The term has however been defined by a number of international instruments over time to denote the use of force, violence and intimidation to achieve political goals. Applied in the context, therefore, this definition will denote the use of armed violence by a terrorist group with the aim of intimidating a government and also to destabilize it. Terrorists use violence all over the world for their religious or political gains and in most of the times, such violence leaves scores of people dead and others injured. The U.S Code ...

In early 1970s many states containing the Gulf Co-operation Council (GCC) were all declared sovereign. In order the emirates of Gulf to bid to modernized political structures they were first to acquire the title of state. The state of Bahrain was among the GCC emirates.

I. Introduction The Arab-Israeli conflict may seem to be one of the longest-lasting international feuds of the nineteenth, twentieth and twenty-first centuries, but in reality the history of the Arab-Israeli conflict is rooted in actions and changes that took place only in the late nineteenth century. The conflict itself only truly came to a head after World War II made significant socio-political changes to the makeup of certain countries in the Middle East, effectively throwing off political and social power balances and provoking chaos and violence in the region. According to Riedel, the violence of the Arab-Israeli conflict has ...

The advent of the Internet age has changed the face of social activism forever. No longer is social activism marked by marches or rallies; today, information is shared in the form of images or video, spread virally from one form of social media to the next.

The “Kony 2012” film was ...

In the post-9/11 world of espionage, soldiers have been replaced with spies as nationalist heroes – since drones do much of the grunt work now as opposed to reservists, the nebulous War on Terror is fought through intelligence and espionage. At the same time, we take a much more self-reflexive look at our heroes, especially in media, and question whether or not they are truly worth rooting for. These notions of the flawed heroic spy, the one who does what is necessary while putting themselves through misery, is explored in depth in the recent films Casino Royale (2006) and Zero ...

Nations such as the U.S have spent billions of dollars to end the menace. As a result, ...

Faster travel time, a feat of human imagination and a masterpiece of engineering. These are but some of the things that airplanes embody in the world.

Since then the “aeroplane” has been used in many situations of human history. Such situations include public transportation, combat and even entertainment. This invention did not come without a price however; just as when dynamite was used in manners that were against the wishes of Alfred ...

In the ancient times, archeologists used things like tombs and monuments to infer about the people who used to live there. However, not all information could be gathered from monuments and tombs. As a result, modern archeologists use other things like trash to learn about previous and present generations. By having this information, archeologists can then make inferences about the people’s economic status, religious beliefs and political beliefs. The premise behind the use of trash to learn about people has its basis on the fact that the waste materials people dispose can tell a thing or two about ...

History: What happened on September 11, 2001 and what were its causes?

The blame was officially put on Bin Laden, the leader of the international terroristic organization Al-Qaeda. However, the conspiracy theorists expressed other ideas. They formed two different camps, which explain the course of events: «Let it happen on purpose» (LIHOP) and «Make it happen on purpose» (MIHOP). Both streams claimed that the United States federal government and Bush administration were aware of the preparation of the attack. In the first case (LIHOP) it is said to have chosen to deliberately ignore the upcoming act of terror and what’s more to have weakened the defense of the country. The ...

Looking back on the actions of the major players in the United States in the weeks, months, and even years leading up to the September 11th, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon, it is easy to find fault. There are frequent tales of ignored warnings, of experts speaking about the dangers of radical groups in the Middle East and being shunted to the side for other, more pressing issues. The attacks on America on September 11th, 2001 represented the largest loss of American life in a non-military related event in the course of American history (“Remembering ...

London’s Green Bin Program

Problem Statement Dumping the millions of tonnes of garbage produced annually in Ontario into landfills produces greenhouse gases and other toxins as it slowly decomposes. That slow decomposition rate creates another problem – finding the space to create more landfill sites to serve a growing population, which means trucking waste to distant sites. Recycling programs were initiated to divert waste from landfill, setting what seems to be an ambitious target for this city of 60 percent to be diverted within a decade. This case study looked specifically at recycling organic waste for composting, assessing the feasibility of a so-called “green ...
