Sovereignty is a blessing of Almighty Allah to humankind; freedom by all means either refers to human beings or to other creatures does hold its magnitude in all aspects. It has widely been manifested by the human chronology that human beings have ever been seeking freedom, thus, the notion bands no dilemma in it as liberty stands to be the at heart right to all. The conflict between India and Pakistan, two nations united by history but divided by destiny, runs deep. Their rivalries over five
Introduction In late 1947, the newly created states of India and Pakistan went to war over the valley of Kashmir. A United Nations brokered ceasefire divided the state into Indian and Pakistani controlled territories, and resolved that a referendum would be held in which the people of Kashmir would be able to choose to join either country. The referendum has not been held to this day. India granted its portion of Kashmir a special status within its constitution, allowing for a great degree of self-autonomy
It has been around 19 years; I have grown up watching the news, listening to the radio about the poor voice of Kashmiris who have been kept hostage for over half a century. Who has been violence by none other than our so called friend Bharat, who has acted sarcastically with Kashmir. When we talk about the role of Pakistan in this core issue, so we don’t see actually any major role but yes we do arrange the rallies, we form human chains; we arrange exhibitions, We arrange seminars, we do talk
While hearing either on the news or through news flashes on the internet of the strife taking place in Kashmir, I understood the war between Pakistan and Indian to be about who was going to own the land in between. This war between the two countries goes much deeper than just real estate. Through research I have learned about the different aspects of what created such hostility between Pakistan and Indian. The dynamics of such hostilities are made up of a need for power, religious belief’s and a
December 2014 How Did Kargil, an Unannounced War on India, Happen? War can be understood as an armed and widespread conflict between two or more political communities. Political communities refer to a state or an area which intends to become a state (Orend, Brian, "War"). A conflict between two groups of different communities like a gang fight or a border patrol can’t be termed as a war. A War between international nations is termed as a classical war, example; World War. A war between two rival communities
Let's Work for World Peace In conducting research for an essay that I am writing on constructive approaches to the problems of war and peace, I read a short, but thought-provoking fable by an unknown author. I would like to share that story with you, as well as my idea as a possible solution for world peace. "Tell me the weight of a snowflake," a robin asked a wild dove. "Nothing more than nothing," was the answer. "In that case I must tell you a marvelous story," the robin said. "I sat on
effective. The main themes were: Heroism, The reality of war Grief/mourning Irony of the play Cowardice/fear Hopelessness of war The cross section of types of people/officers The coping of the pressure of war. Duty In heroism, in this text, we clearly see that Raleigh tries to be a hero but fails. Raleigh (excitedly): "I say Stanhope's told me about the raid". This suggests that Raleigh had a set picture of war (go and kill the enemy and be a hero), but he didn't know
which we see, is dark and gloomy with several lighted candles. These lighted candles signify that for the men during the war the night merges with the day and therefore the men's behavioural patterns are irregular. A calendar is situated upon one of the bare walls and it symbolises how slowly the time passes for the men who are entrapped within the trench. During the war propaganda played a major part in the recruitment of men who thought that they were to come back alive to England as heroes
first hand witnesses of drug abuse domestic violence, hunger anger and poverty. How do I know this, I guess you could say that it’s common knowledge. There are nasty parts of life that I can’t comprehend but have learned to accept as a reality. War, savage beatings horrific displays of aggressions are all violent yet real to life. Real to me at least when I watch it on the news. should that be taken away simply because it contains violence? Should I be naïve, left out in the cold so to speak
Napoleon Bonaparte Hero or Tyrant? With such driving momentum, yet unstable, the French in the late 1700’s needed something or someone who was willing to lead their country, unite them, and bring order to their society. In 1799 Napoleon Bonaparte emerged to become that very man. Controversy wells up now a days as people begin to argue whether this man was a hero or tyrant, however I believe him to be a hero for doing exactly what the French needed at the time. He created a legendary domestic system
According to Ian Almond in the article "Mullahs, Mystics, Moderates and Moghuls: The Many Islams of Salman Rushdie", Rushdie wrote this piece from a medieval religiousness perspective, most pointedly making use of symbols such as the "ancient holy relic whose disappearance inspires countless deaths" (Almond 3). These violent deaths mark something more in the theme of the book; presumptuously, Rushdie is attempting to enlighten his readers with the many faces of Islam, this particular story showing
affection towards select paintings have made them intriguing as to the purpose behind their creation.

Throughout history, civilizations have declared wars for many reasons such as valuables, land, resources and mainly desires. The desire for war is generally caused by human nature and so mankind have great propensities to do according to his desires and has other people agree to his desires and preferences. I will discuss why some people agree or disagree with the statement above as well as stating my own opinion. Some people would agree with the statement because everyone will always have different
Identity and Violence may seem isolated from each other on a superficial level, but on a deeper analysis both seem to depend on each other. To put in a different way, just as long-stagnant water can give birth to deadly mosquitoes, similarly a logged and rigid definition of identity may lead to violence which could be similar to Aedes. To briefly explain this analogy it’s essential to refer to Charles Taylor who argued that identity is shaped in three ways:- 1) Recognition of identity 2) Absence
No one likes it when our emails are read, or when we think someone has looked at our text messages, but can you imagine cyber-snooping on a massive scale? Can you imagine cyber war, where countries infiltrate computer systems of other countries in order to overpower and control them? Though cyber attacks are not as obvious to Americans like other problems, such as poverty, illegal immigration, or a poor economy, a cyber attack could destroy our country. I believe that our government needs to make
of Two Cities by Charles Dickens. The French revolution, (as told by Wikipedia) was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France from 1789 to 1799 that had a fundamental impact on French history and on modern history worldwide. This war, that lasted 10 years, is the main focus of A Tale of Two Cities. The Slogan of The French Revolution, that was frequently mentioned in the book, is completely filled with Irony. First starting with The Republic. Webster’s 1828 Dictionary defines a
through the Civil War and his quest for manhood. Henry, or The Youth as he is known in the book, is very naive in the beginning of the book. He sees war as something more glamorous and romantic than it actually is. He is very innocent and unaware of what war is truly like. Henry's only wish is to be seen as a hero and he believes that fighting in war will grant him that. This idea Henry has gotten in his mind about war being so exciting and making heroes makes a lot of sense. War has always been
the benefit of war. The soldier paid his time in misery, but now gets to spend eternity in peace, the ultimate payoff. War does not only have to be the declared violence between nations, but can include the war inside an individual's mind, turmoil between loved ones as well. All of these conflicts may be destructive, however they may bring new opulence, if the trial is fronted correctly. There are many examples throughout the history of the human race that because the faction waged war between each
‘Disabled’, by Wilfred Owen, is about a young boy who experiences war first hand, which results in losing his limbs. The loss of his limbs cause him to be rejected by society and be treated ‘’like a queer disease’’. Wilfred Owens personal opinion on war is evident throughout the poem. Own expresses a negative attitude towards war due to own traumatic past, experiencing war first hand. Owen creates sympathy for the soldier in ‘Disabled’ by using a wide range of poetic devices. Owen explores the themes
violence; the American colonies formed through violent acts; the United States of America was founded with violence; and we continue our independence through the violence of warfare. Violence is found in every aspect of life from entertainment to war. As a civilized society we try to counter-act our violent nature, but it remains at the core of our existence. Violent acts often seem senseless to observers, but occur from a multitude of underlying factors. In Florida, a retired police officer shot
