Aguleri-Umuleri Crisis Summary

There was a time when the entire world was at piece living with their own people on their own soil. There was no one attempting to overtake others and no one warring for land. However, that soon changed with the colonization of the Americas. Europeans came to America from all sides and took land as they saw fit in order to colonize it for themselves. The Spanish people were explorers who were interested in what this new land could bring to them and their people. This is what led to the colonization of the Chumash tribe by the Spaniards.

On October 5, 1970, British trade commissioner James Cross was kidnapped in his Westmount home by members of the terrorist group Front de liberation du Quebec. The FLQ Manifesto called for non-democratic separation to be brought about by acts of terror. From 1963 to 1967, the FLQ planted 35 bombs; from 1968 to 1970 they planted over 50 bombs. By the fall of 1970 the terrorist acts of the FLQ cells had claimed 6 lives. The kidnappers' demands included the release of a number of convicted or detained FLQ members and the broadcasting of the FLQ Manifesto. The Manifesto was read on Radio-Canada. Then, on October 10th, the Quebec minister of justice guaranteed safe passage to anywhere in the world for the kidnappers in exchange for the safe

Since both groups needed land for similar reasons, conflict wasn’t inevitable. The English needed land to

Eventually, there was an imbalance of representation in the courthouses, which was an added advantage for the wealthy. Wealthy officials formed a clique where they were able to influence policies and legal affairs within the colonies. Lawyers influenced decisions relating to the court cases brought in by the merchants to their benefit. Furthermore, they had a better knowledge of the law as compared to the farmers, and they manipulated it efficiently to meet their needs and to guarantee that they won. Lawyers exploited this opportunity to make themselves richer at the expense of the common citizen, while also exerting political power. As a result, all political positions in the regions were dominated by immigrants, and this further aggravated the locals.

Despite current misconceptions of the tensions between Muslims and Jews, the current political conflict began in the early 20th century. The Palestinians, both muslims and christians, lived in peace for centuries. Control of the city had historically, since 637 AD, been under Muslim control with guarantee of Christians’ safety, right to property, and right to practice religion. The collapse of the Ottoman Empire led to European nations colonizing many of its former lands, and the British gained control of Palestine. Social and political issues prompted European jews to flee from political unrest from their homes in Europe, and migrate to Palestine. Seeing the influx of Jews as a European colonial movement, the Arabs fought back. The British couldn’t control the violence, and in 1947 the United Nations (UN) voted to split the land into two countries. The continued political unrest in the Middle East is the cause of United States involvement.

For over a hundred years, the colonists had developed their own societies with little interference or attention from Britain (Reid, 1978). In addition, during this early time period of colonization, the English and Europeans alike, acquired land, established homes, and obtained individual independence for the first time (Greene, 2000). Due to the distance of the colonies from Britain, those in charge of the colonies worked with the settlers to establish self-government under local control (Greene, 2000). Once this self-government was firmly established, Britain found it extremely difficult to encourage them to adhere to British laws (Greene, 2000).

As of recent years, with the rise of right-wing, nationalistic politicians in Israel, the hunger for settlement of Palestine has increased. Seeing the land as theirs to take, more and more Jewish settlements have been improved and expanded on in the West Bank, culminating and high profile confrontations between the new Jewish settlers and the Palestinian

At the time of the Three Mile incident, there were only three major television stations limiting the ability to communicate critical information to as many people as possible. Development of cable television and more channels for people to watch gives the ability to distribute information at an increased rate. This is a great advantage to communicating crisis information to a mass audience.

Throughout history, nations and tribes often came in conflict with each other over areas of land containing resources or other important. It was important for the survival of a group to protect resources and reserve them for their own people. Native american tribes had a different concept of property from Europeans when they first arrived. While the idea of ownership of land was a foreign idea, tribes still fought over hunting grounds for their food. Holding land solely for the group means a better chance of survival and therefore, has been a priority in the history of group vs. group competition. Since having land means that resources for living are secure, it provides a sense of safety for the

This essay will focus on how theorists of peace and conflict have analysed the conflict in recent history. Especially, the peace process after the first Palestinian intifada and the 1993 Oslo-agreements will be analysed. In addition, this essay will shed light on the involvement of the United States in the

The Genocide in Sudan has gone through a serious phase, some of which overlaps, and continues to destroy the civilians identified with the Fur, Zaghawa, Mass alit and other “African’ tribes living in the Western Region. In researching, articles indicate Human Rights have described the traditional livelihoods of black Africans in Darfur as a huge crop. Most of these black African tribal populations grow their crop by farming millet and other grains, fruits, gum trees, raising herds of castle, camels, horses, donkeys, and other smaller animals. Unfortunately, the majority of Sudanese, African and Darfurians claim their living from the land they have to inherit over the generations, which they have to cultivate.

Evidence of potential disputes over land and sovereignty had been prevalent since the early contact between Maori and Pakeha, over these early origins of the issues generated the signing of the Treaty in an attempt resolve the surrounding issues. But in fact the contestability of the treaty itself and from the translation variance between the Maori and English versions rose up many more issues

Since many religions have started in the Middle East, it has become the center for erupting conflicts. For instance, the Palestinian-Israeli conflict has been in the news for many reasons. Both groups want control of the God given land that they both claim is theirs, according to God, and what had happened in the past. The result of the conflict is religious terrorism (PBS, 1). Continuing, some Middle Eastern politics have been in conflict, even dividing communities of the

 This conflict is among Jews and Arabs. Palestine for the Arabs is a land whose Oil has been cultivated by them for generations. Israel, as later called by the Jews, is a land of inspiration that is destined for them, since many Jews had been living in Israel and emigrating previously (Fraser,1). This shows the Socio-Political and religious roots of the conflict. The Arabic population is currently located in Jerusalem, but the Jewish Population in Israel has a strong desire of relocating to Jerusalem someday, and have been fighting for this to happen
