Chapter three in aproches to peace helps us better understand terrorism. Many of us have a skewed perception on what we believe terrorism is. This chapter is trying to get us out of the mind set of thinking that only terrious are Muslims from the middle east. The chapter focus on why people from the middle east do the unthink able. How we may see them as terrioris. But other see them as there freedom fighters. That we cant count the United State out of the equation of being terrious, because the United States government is very much so part of the problem. We may try to justify are wrong doing but it still doesn't help. United has inflicted just as much pain to people around the world. Chapter three focuses on terrorism between the United States…
When dealing with racial tensions between Americans and Muslims after such a catastrophic event such as September 11th, the outlook on Muslims from an American’s standpoint may forever be tarnished. Much like the way Americans viewed Japanese following the attack on Pearl Harbor, although the Japanese people who we may come in contact with in the U.S. had nothing to do with the attack because they are Japanese, after the attack was not the best of times for them. All over the world following September 11th you would hear reports of violence towards Muslims by American citizens who in their own mind thought they were standing up for their country and in a way “getting back” at the Muslim…

Colombia's government and the rebel group FARC reached an agreement May 17, 2014 on ending the illegal drug trade. The deal called for FARC to cooperate with the government in convincing farmers to grow crops other than coca, which is used to make cocaine. The announcement was made Friday in Havana where the two sides have been negotiating an end to a 50-year-old insurgency. Colombia was the world's leading producer of cocaine until Peru recently overtook it in cultivation of coca. The cocaine industry has been the major source of funds for the Marxist rebel group and a cause of crime and instability in the South American country. With the agreement on ending the drug trade, the two sides have resolved three of the six points on their agenda. Previously FARC and the government had reached deals on agrarian reform and political participation.…

On the West Bank and Gaza Strip, Palestinian land has been increasingly taken over by Israel for years. An extremist Jewish group called the Zionists, emerged in the late 1800s , seeking to find a homeland for the Jews, and searching in both Africa and the Americas before finally settling on Palestine. This did not appear as a problem or threat at first but as many more Zionists immigrated to Palestine with the intention of taking over the land to create a Jewish state, fighting broke out with the Palestinians, increasingly surging with Hitler’s rise to power during World War I. To this day, Palestinians have very minimal control of what mere land they have left, especially with Israel’s military forces using extremely oppressive methods.…
From early 1930s to middle 1940s, Jews in Germany, Poland, and other parts of Europe faced discrimination from Hitler and the Nazis. They were sent to ghettos and later concentration camps and extermination camps. In the ghettos, Jews had to live in small homes and consumed small amounts of food. In addition, disease and death were rampant. Living conditions were worse in the concentration camps. In contrast to common belief, not all Jews accepted such unreasonable and unequal treatments of the Nazis. Consequently, Jews resisted in various forms.…

The Holocaust not only traumatized victims of it, but the Holocaust also traumatizes those who recall the horrible stories as well. The word Holocaust means “widespread destruction” (“World” 263-264). No wonder they named this catastrophe the Holocaust. The Holocaust was the “mass murder of European Jews by the Nazis during World War II” (“World” 263-264). German dictator “Adolf Hitler planned to obliterate the entire population as part of his plan to conquer the world” (“World” 263-264). Hitler’s policy was, basically, ‘agree or die,’ (“World” 236). Anyone who was opposed with his beliefs was thrown in prison or executed (“World” 236). During the Holocaust, millions of Jews were murdered based on the belief of one - Hitler. The Jews were on the…
