Has anyone noticed that there has never been a day of peace over in the Middle Eastern region or is it just me. Why are there so many wars over there? There is Israel, Egypt, Africa, Syria, Iran, Iraq, Turkey, and now Russia. Poor Syria and Iraq, if it wasn't for America sending weapons over there for those people to fight with, they'd be throwing rocks, sticks and bottled cocktails. Even when America do send weapons over there, they end up in the hands of the opposition.
I always say there is a reason for everything and there is a reason for these wars. You hear the political powers say, "Oh, we need to defend America and keep the terrorist at bay before they come over here. Well, so far our most major catastrophy was the 911 incident and a few internal crazy individuals. The 911 incident was so unbelieveable it was hard to believe that it was a terrorist act and after commentators started saying that Hussein didn,t do it, that President Bush was wrong looking for weapons of mass destruction, etc., I didn't know what to think anymore.
Well, I guess we're all confused about world events, but like I said, there is a reason for everything. I was surfing the web one evening and I just entered the word "ISIS" and these videos came up about the wars in the Middle East and some of the reasons they occur. It talked about Mercenaries that go to these war torn areas and help the people fight simply because they want to help. Then another video talked about how the United States Government, the United Nations, Britain and other European countries send private soldiers and other types of employees and security personnel to these countries for reasons of raw material extractions like Gold, Diamonds, Oil, Uranium. They go over there and throw government leaders a few dollars to get permission to get these valuable resources and sometimes it's by any means necessary.
Military groups like ISIS don't want outside religions or governments interfering with their way of life, religious beliefs or customs. When these two events clash even for a moment, it can cause war. The Islamic State has something called Sharia where there is a strict adherence to the laws of the Koran which can be somewhat barbaric to modern day civilization. Yet, Muslims believe they must follow these laws to the letter in some cases.
There are laws in the King James Version Bible that are somewhat strict and deadly, but laws in America collide severely with some of them. For instance, Leviticus 19: 28 talks about tattoos is wrong, 29 talks about prostitution is wrong, Leviticus 20: 10 says committing Adultry is a Death Sentence, 13 says homos*xuality is a death sentence. Adultery and homos*xuality are both practiced here in America. The funny thing is you don't see terrorist coming over here to America trying to make Sharia law like Christianity is being taught to them. Religion is a very delicate thing and it can be confusing and deadly when tampered with.
Countries do just fine on their own without outsiders trying to tell them how to run their own countries. America wouldn't dare let another country tell her how to run things over here. Britain wouldn't, China wouldn't, Canada wouldn't, but because countries like Syria, Iraq, Iran are somewhat poorly run, every country that is financially stable wants to tell them what is wrong and what is right. Don't you just hate control freaks? They do too.
