Iran was now unprotected, and a new power came into being. The Arabs invaded and the quality of life changed. “People fell into poverty as the greedy court imposed ever-increasing taxes. Tyranny tore apart the social contract between ruler and ruled that Zoroastrian doctrine holds to be the basis of organized life” (21). The Iranian people couldn’t survive with a ruler who had no sympathy or respect for them. Their life was being over run by foreigners.

What are you insecure about? Every individual has at least one insecurity that they internally battle with every day. For example, some may be embarrassed of their physical appearance, which may lead to low self-esteem. Others may be socially awkward and some may even be insecure about their financial status.

In the Television Show, Arab Labor, viewers were shown the personal identity issues that the main character, Amjad, battled with. The personality of Israelis and Palestinians has affected their vulnerability to certain situations following the 2009 Gaza Conflict. They have faced distressing repercussions from war such as posttraumatic stress disorder.

Art is the expression of human’s creative skill and imagination, art pass through society, and it reflects social life by shaping. Art, such as literature, dance, painting, calligraphy, and music. James Baldwin, a famous African- American author of “Stranger in the village.” He discussed the rank and relationship between the Blacks and Whites in the society. Also, Baldwin went to the village in Leukerbad, and lived with the White Europeans. This essay is about the the experience and history of him.

Presented in an engaging and intensely graphic visual style, Waltz with Bashir uses the medium of fluid animation to present layers of history and effectively communicate concepts surrounding how we deal with trauma. Often referencing traumatic events that which current society did not encounter directly themselves, Waltz with Bashir triumphs in the struggle against ethical and visual implications of animated form, evoking a strong emotional response in its visual style. A vector based, frame by frame animation technique was used to present a re-enactment of the events that took place; referencing live-action footage as visual reference for the stand-alone animation process.

A few of the scenes in the movie inherit the cultural background with the late 1800’s time frame and sets a real tragedy throughout the film. In this motion picture, we learn certain things that fear some of us and have plot twist actions that make the movie so spectacular. As we approach the plot twists; fear, themes, and control for this video, it is a life lesson in most cases maybe for those who are in-love or just looking for a movie to open our minds.

While the Iran-Iraq War during the 1980's may have permanently altered the course of progress in Iran and Iraq, the war also altered the resulting permanent involvement of the rest of the world in the middle-east. The rich and complicated history in Iraq has established numerous cultural and ethnic traditions that all play a part in where the country is today. The Iran-Iraq War brought into focus some of those traditions and how they conflicted, while also bringing Iraq and its economic situation into the spotlight. Being on top of some of the most mineral rich soil in the world makes Iraq a major contributor to the world's economy through petroleum and crude oil exports. This, among other reasons, ties nations
