To be successful in Iraq, and in any war for that matter, our use of force must be tied to a political objective more complete than the ouster of a regime. To date, that has not happened in Iraq. It is time it did. In the past week the situation in Iraq has taken a dramatic turn for the worse. While we may have differed on how we went to war, Americans of all political persuasions are united in our determination to succeed. The extremists attacking our forces should know they will not succeed

AMISOM is a humanitarian and peacekeeping mission that were launched by the African union in Somalia. The go ahead for the mission was authorized by United Nations in February 2007. The main aim of the mission was to help Somalia halt the ravaging civil war that has brought the country to its knees. Somalia is an African country that is located in the eastern part of the continent. Since the fall of the Barre regime in 1986, the country has been seen all forms of war up till the late 2000’s. After

Introduction According to Maryan Qasim, an advisor in the Transitional Federal Government of Somalia and an expert in women 's rights, the most dangerous thing women can do in Somalia is not go to war, but give birth (Qasim). Over the past decade the country has not only struggled with gender inequality, but with civil war (Somalia country profile). To this day, the country remains in conflict and anarchy. Without laws or a solid form of government, the Somali people suffer from drought, famine

threats, promote political stability and by supporting the organization of a central government and provide humanitarian assistance to the Somali people. Ways: Somalia must develop a Political Dialogue between the Transitional Federal Government (TFG’s) which are known as the Transitional Federal Institutions (TFI’s) for reconciliation to

1. Analysis of the oldest sedimentary rocks provides evidence for the origin of life List the atmospheric gases believed to have existed on early earth The atmospheric gases believed to have existed on early earth are: water vapour hydrogen methane ammonia Describe the hypothesised conditions and environment of early Earth Early Earth is predicted to have been a very hostile environment. Due to high levels of tectonic activity, there were thought to have been many volcanic eruptions. These eruptions

The idea of evolution was introduced by Charles Darwin, and explains how animals change over time. The theory states that every organism on the Earth originated from a common ancestor and then, through the process of natural selection, how those animals branched off to become different organisms. Scholars use this theory to explain how animals that live on Earth change over time. However, scientists find it difficult to use this theory to explain some events that occurred in the geologic time

Geochemical proxy-based reconstruction widely utilizes the trace elemental and isotopic compositions of marine biogenic carbonates to interpret the past climatic and oceanographic conditions. However, such proxy-based reconstructions are often challenged by marine diagenesis as carbonates are highly susceptible to diagenesis, especially partial dissolution and secondary calcite recrystallization. Thus quantifying diagenetic effect is a prerequisite for development of any carbonate-based geochemical

in the fossils of ancient South American animals (Laurasian ‘condylarths’) and compared it with the collagen found in animals present today, mainly xenarthrans (anteaters, armadillos and sloths). The author used the data to compile all the animal species into their respective groups (ungulate). Because the author discovered some discrepancies in the fossil records and the morphology previously thought to be true, he is trying to determine a phylogenetic tree using collagen found in fossils of extinct
