Two Sides To Sacrifice As Iraq
Sacrifice is as blacklisted as Iraq that word is taboo as many don't ever want to lose something they love. To some people they would give up anything that would be me if it is for the greater good there would be no hesitation. But there are always two sides to a story and no doubt that i will have to see the others sides view. The parts that i do get is the part were it may hold some sentimental value there are times when it is something who has passed one has left behind. there is always a time in life where you have to sacrifice something it might be time it might be money it maybe a life but hopefully not someone elses life

    A Separate Peace Internal Conflict

    Throughout the novel A Separate Peace, John Knowles depicts a character-versus-self conflict through Gene Forrester’s, the protagonist, progressively worsening insecurities and a major epiphany. During his time at the Devon Boarding School, Gene shares a dormitory with his best friend Phineas, Finny. However, Gene’s jealousy of Finny’s natural athletic ability and leadership qualities causes him to create an internal conflict due to his low self esteem. His covetousness of Finny flourishes to the point that he must rationalize why he begrudges Finny to the extent he does; he reasons that the rivalry he concocts is mutual. Gene continues with this mindset that Finny is equally envious of his own intelligence until the evening when Leper states…

    Brave New World: Compelling Quotes

    2. “ ‘I ought to have been there… Why wouldn’t they let me be the sacrifice? I’d have gone round ten times---twelve, fifteen. Palowhtiwa only got as far as seven. They could have had twice as much blood from me’ “ (Huxley 116-117). Depending on where the person falls on the caste system, the idea of being a sacrifice can draw many contrasting opinions. Those who are fortunate enough to be either an Alpha or Beta find it absolutely repulsive whereas the Indians view it as a way to appease their gods and most importantly, themselves.…

    Examples Of Sacrifice In The Lottery

    Sacrifice can be recognized at all levels, for instance, in 1960 during the Vietnam War over 58,220 Americans sacrificed their lives to stand for the people, and land that they love; however, these men and women sacrificed at a large range: their lives, leftover bread, or even a family member (Nation Archives). Sacrifice has so many different rankings that it truly is mind blowing. In comparison in the passage “The Lottery”, written by Shirley Jackson, each year someone is sacrificed to save their beloved land, and in some cases a family member will volunteer in place of a loved one. Although readers may contemplate the lottery as a cruel and brutal sacrifice (which it is), readers need to remember that the lottery is all…

    Rabbi Orlofsky was once listening to a radio station where a reform Rabbi and Orthodox Rabbi were discussing if Tisha B’av was still relevant today. The Orthodox Rabbi replied explaining that since sinas chinam was still rampant amongst us therefore the message of tisha B’av is still important. The host then asked if he was looking forward to the rebuilding of the Beit Hamikdash and the Rabbi immediately replied yes! However when the interview asked if he was also looking forward to animal sacrifices, the Rabbi began gagging and mumbling. We learn from this story that if one isn’t comfortable with a concept then he shouldn’t teach it. Rabbi Orlofsky further explains that when a person brought a Korbon, it was a life changing experience. He would bring such an offering when he wanted to atone for a sin. He would then see the animal as himself being slaughtered and offered up to Hashem. The person realized that we can act in such a way that can forfeit our very own existence. Unfortunately, when we reached to that point when giving a Korban was meaningless, Hashem took it away. Rabbi Orlofsky continues with a story. There was once a little boy who noticed that every Erev Shabbos his father would acquire flowers for his mother and wanted to do the same. The following Friday, the boy eagerly went to get her flowers. He came back to his mom with a few weeds and grass but was immensely proud of himself. His mother took the flowers and placed them into a vase although she’d wanted to throw it away. The little boy, excitedly did the same the following week, however, overtime his excitement to do this act for his mother eventually wore off and just became another chore he had to do each week. Therefore, the next week the boy just brings the flowers and remarks, “Here! You want flowers, I brought you flowers.” The mother, disappointed scoops up the flowers and dumps them into the trashcan. She then realizes that since there…

    Democratization In Iraq

    A successful democracy consists of more than just a statement of purpose. It requires a sustained commitment and clear objectives for the particular country's needs. Creating a democracy for any country is easier said than done. Iraq is currently undergoing this transition. I believe complete democratization of Iraq will never take place. It is a long process consisting of many requirements to begin developing it, challenges that will slow down the process , and long-term effects on those involved and not involved alike.…

    Conflicts of the Middle East

    There are many issues between the Middle East and America; many of them dating back to the 1940’s. The main reason America wanted to gain power in the area is to have a steady supply of oil. The desire for oil has a major effect on U.S. foreign policy, which is another problem. The involvement of the U.S. in foreign policy in the Middle East causes unrest, and in some cases, religious militancy, which is a serious problem. The blame for these problems doesn’t lay with just one country or region, but varies depending on the issue.…

    Prisoners Dilemma

    Two men attempting a burglary with a weapon, A and B, are caught, with insufficient incriminating evidence for the burglary. They are questioned separately and not allowed to communicate. If both deny the burglary, they escape a 10-year sentence and will be imprisoned for two years for possession of a weapon. A is told separately that if B pleads guilty and A does not, B will get a reduced sentence of four years, while A will get 10. So A has an incentive to confess and get four years, too. A is also told that if he confesses, he can go free, while B gets 10 years. Therefore, the logical choice for A is to confess. The same logic applies to B. So, both confess and get four years, instead of both denying and getting only two years. The logical trap is that acting in one’s self-interest without communication and co-operation leads to a worse position.…

    The Two Nation Theory

    Introduction: i) Sir Syed Ahmed Khan: The man who spoke first the Muslims as a “nation” in the modern times was none other than Sir Syed Ahmed Khan. In 1867, he said: “I am convinced that both these nations will not join whole heartedly in anything. At present there is no open hostility between the two nations. But on accounts of so called educated people it will increase in the future.” Analyzing on the demand of Indian National Congress for introduction of parliamentary elections he said: “The proposals of congress are exceeding expediently for a country which is inhabited by two different nations. Now suppose if the English leave India who would be the ruler of India? Is it possible under these circumstances that the two nations, the Indians and the Muslims would sit on the same throne? Most certainly not. It is necessary that one of them should surrender the other. To hope that both would remain equal is to desire the impossible.” ii) Allama Iqbal: He was a great philosopher and political thinker. He had studied Islam deeply and had profound likening for the Islamic principles. He compared the western culture with Islam and reached the conclusion that the welfare of mankind laid in the adoption of Islam as a way of life. He awakened the Muslims of the subcontinent and asked them to struggle for a separate homeland. This he did through his poetry. He said: “I am fully convinced that the Muslims of India will ultimately have to establish a separate homeland as they cannot live with Hindus in United India.” Allama Iqbal openly negated the concept of one nation and emphasize on the separate national identity of Muslims. He was against the separation of religion from politics: “India is a continent of human beings belonging to different languages and religions. To base a constitution on the conception of homogenous India is to prepare her for civil war. I, therefore demand a separate Muslim state in the…
