    673 words
    The Arab world has been one of the most confusing areas known to the western world. Because of this confusion, the people of the Middle East have been made to suffer, not only at the hands of the west, but also by their own.

The roots of all these problems go back to the settlement imposed on the Middle East in 1918-1922" (Field 26). Since before the start of World War...

    With the beginning of a seemingly endless war on terrorism, and a shaky United States economy, now hardly seems the time to examine our general policy towards all other nations, and developing nations in particular.

Every other car you see on the highway has "Old Glory" proudly flying in their window or on their...
  • Arab In The Middle East
    314 words
    To an audience sickened for years by the sordid grime and hopeless slaughter of trench warfare on the western front, Lowell Thomas brought a hero in gleaming white robes who rode to victory. Thomas's story of a young Oxonian in native garb becoming a warrior-prince of the desert, to some extent prefigured in Green mantle and A.E.W.
