Military Intervention Paper

The US has always been a democracy country and a role model for other countries who view the US as a great country.In order to keep that reputation up US should not have intervention with foreign conflicts.President Donald Trump authorized an airstrike of an airfield in Syria. The purpose of this strike was, in part, to punish the Assad regime for using chemical weapons against its own people, and is the latest example of the US getting involved in a foreign conflict.This can lead to another war if US intervenes with foreign conflicts that they don't have to deal with.

Much recent discourse surrounding humanitarian intervention has focused on the responsibility to protect (R2P). Prevention is a key component for good international relations and few would say it is not important, but as evidence to date would show prevention is very ineffective, the legality of military intervention still needs to be debated, as to date there is no consensus. For any intervention to be legitimate, whether unilateral or multilateral, it must comply with international law. So as not to cause any confusion, any situation in which an “intervention” is done with the permission or by request of the state being intervened, should be considered humanitarian assistance as state sovereignty is not breached. This paper will

Many wars have happened through out our history. From the B.C to the 21st century. But some people believe some of these war should be forgotten or not learned about. To be specific, the War of 1812 and this is major issue. The issue on this is that some believe that it should be taken out of history books. This is because the ink prices have sky rocketed and not putting this in would save them money.Others believe that keeping it would be better. This is because many great accomplishments came out of this war. My opinion is that the War of 1812 should be left in the history books.

In 1814 and 1815 President Andrew Jackson became famous for when he demolished the British Army in the war of Battle of New Orleans. What most people do not know is that Jackson suspended the court order of habeas corpus and the declaration of war. Well habeas corpus is a court order requiring a person under arrest to be brought before a judge or into court. So Jackson suspended this law so that he could bring in people he needed to win the war with New Orleans, which brings us to the declaration of war. Declaration of war is a formal act which one state goes to war against another. The declaration is a speech acting by an authorized party of a national government, to create a state of war between two states. Now you are probably wondering

Limited war was not so successful. Eventually, Lincoln realized that limited war should be replaced by total war. When total war began Lincoln order that the southern ports be blockaded and he insisted that 75,000 voluntary serve for the ninety days. Ulysses S grant implemented the policy of total warfare because, “he was determined to control the Mississippi valley”(86). Grant was very eager to be involved in the war and the actions he took proved to be very victories. He was able to capture nearly fifteen hundred prison in Tennessee valley. He also secured “Nashville and Memphis suppliers at Shiloh, and Vicksburg . Grant, following what Lincoln had stated about total war, allowed his men to forage food and take whatever plantation they could.

Rain in a Dry Land is a documentary about two Somalian Bantu families who are given the opportunity to relocate to the United States in 2004 for a new start after living ten years in a Kenyan refugee camp. These families had to flee their homes to escape the constant warfare that had plagued their area; as a result they ended up in a refugee camp. The one family had their two daughters lost to them because of the attack on their people in their village. These two families enter America with some knowledge about the country, but no actual experience, therefore these people enter as Muslim, immigrants and of a completely different culture than Americans are used to. The two families have to learn to work in America, to school their children

Our world is a changing place; it's always developing new culture, looks, and history. As it changes, beliefs are lost and are not found again. Freedoms and rights are tested, and sometimes lost. The world is changing for the worse because hate and violence are on a social high as people are attacking each other powered by hate, discrimination and labeling are happening to people for what they are, not who they are.

Ronald Reagan stated, “there is a profound moral difference between the use of force for Liberation and the use of force for Conquest”. Sometimes there is no other option but to use Force to stop end atrocity from happening or continuing. Throughout historical events that have been proven that force is fundamental to protect people's freedoms and liberties.

While America was at war in Vietnam in the late twentieth century, there was a backlash of rebellion from the American people against the war. One particular group of people who protested were the students and these protests often escalated which leads to the investigation of the question, through opposing viewpoints,: To what extent did the National Guard overreact to anti-war protests at Kent State on May 4, 1970? The following sources were analyzed due to their crucial value of providing alternate viewpoints to the investigation. This event contains modern relevance due to the fact it questions to protection of United State citizens and freedom of expression. However, despite the violence portrayed by protesters, the National Guard escalated to counter violence too swiftly against the minute threat of the unarmed students.

The Peloponnesian War was fought between the two leading city states. Athens and Sparta during 431-404 BC. The war started due to the Athenians taking everyones money to buy slaves to create the Parthenon. When the Spartans grew tired of their greed they united themselves with the other city states to create an army to stand against Athens. It was a hopeless effort the first years of the war. Athens had the greatest navy of all time. Even when the Spartans had their borders surrounded they were just as safe within their walls. The Athenians could come and go as they please and still transport goods due to their navy. The tides turned in 430 BC when Athens started undergoing a plague. Due to everyone living so closely together it was easy for the plague to spread. Thanks to the plague the Spartans were able to gain multiple victories and win the war.

War has been a part of human culture since it's birth. It has led to a great many massacres and has shown us the evil that exists within the souls of humanity. Some have even gone as far as saying that war is human nature. To better understand the reasons behind war and how it affects others, I've examined several different societies and cultures so as to better understand the necessity of war and see the cause of their external war attitude. To do so, different variables from two topics (military institutions and external war attitude) were matched up and crossed so as to look into the answers to these questions. The variables were then calculated and through these graphs, I was able to find different societies in which

Why would such a highly developed government that has been politically stable for almost forty years give authority to those who seek primarily personal gain rather than an overall benefit for their country, leading to the country’s first military coup d’etat? This question, along with many others, cannot simply be answered with a brief explanation. It takes extensive research. Still one may never know the true reasons to why there was such chaos. However, with some quality intuition, a few hypotheses can be made. First, the exploration of whom and what gave prior-coup Côte d'Ivoire their overall prosperity will be discussed. Then, the question of why this crisis occurred will be discussed. Finally, this paper will elaborate what events give basis to certain theories behind why the coup occurred.

The debate of humanitarian intervention and the responsibility to protect have been discussed in international relations discourse more seriously within the last 60 years. The major historical developments which have led to an increase in the intensity of these debates have had beneficial and detrimental effects on Earth within the last 20 years. Several factors have contributed to this including; globalization, the rise in international accountability, an increase humanitarian consciousness to prevent major atrocities from occurring, the expansion of territorial to global responsibility of the western world, and the realization of the western world that regional sovereignty no longer accounts for national security. To develop an opinion

Through much of our time as a nation, there has been a major question asked when our people and allies are faced with evil. That major question is “do we go to war or do we engage in diplomatic solutions?”. This is has been a point of contention that varies depending upon where a person was raised, what the person’s basic belief structure is, and even what demographic they fall into. One thing is for certain, partisan affiliation in America has a great deal to do with how a person will answer an affront to the United States. Since most women tend to go the Democrat route due to the standard beliefs of women versus men, I will be highlighting women’s roles; but mostly leave the discussion as one between Democrats and Republicans.
