    The reason that all governments torture prisoners is the same. “Torture is a machine designed to break the will to resist” (Klein) or to punish those who have disobeyed. There are two main reasons a government would want to break a person’s will. One reason why a government would want to break a person’s will is to remove that person’s motivation towards doing or saying things that the government does not want them to do or say. This reason, is the main purpose behind the persecution of Winston in Nineteen Eighty Four. The secon...

    Ever wonder about the conditions in Iraq after Saddam Hussein was killed for the extreme mistreatment of his people (mostly the Kurdish Iraqis)? The current conditions in Iraq are quite harsh as of right now, for starters the Sunni and Shiite Muslim people are so far apart in their views that they’re raging war. Due too this war, a religious law that grants women far fewer rights than Westernized countries is being enforced as the law of the land. This religious law, or Islamic law, is called Sharia law. The following paragraphs go into detail about what women are allowed and not allowed too do while Sharia is being enforced, as well as the obstacles many Muslim women face when trying too achieve gender equality. Another issue within Iraq that concerns the wellbeing of women is the topic of female genital

    Since the beginning of the Arab-Israeli conflict there have been countless human rights violations committed by both sides, but the majority of violations have been carried out by Israel against the Palestinians. In looking at the conflict, one may believe that every attack has featured a human rights violation, but in order to be able to properly determine what human rights violations are, one must know the history of human rights and how they are protected.

    Islamic leaders tend to care more about their values based on how they think a young women should act based on their customs and beliefs toward their religion that they completely forget about how the women may feel toward this. These bright young girls leaving their homes to travel to Syria to join Isis was no coincidence at all, having everything planned out and strategically organized for months. We had no idea that these girls would plan something as devious as this, not even their families. These young girls represent what the article calls “the face of a new, troubling phenomenon,” young girls succumbing to the allure of what Sasha Havlicek, the chief executive of the Institute for Strategic Dialogue, labels a “jihadi, girl power subculture.” As we look to remember these three young girls we can reflect upon their actions and motivations for fleeing their country for Syria as we think abruptly to ourselves Why Isis? And why decide to run away so soon and not wait? But maybe the question we should be asking ourselves is to why not turn to Isis during times like this. On television and many social media websites we see broadcast and reports authorized by Isis intending to persuade young women especially to come to come to Syria help protect

  • Violence and Crisis in Syria

    An attack on the Syrian state would fall within the boundaries of the international concept of the responsibility to protect. The crisis in Syria has escalated by protests in March 2011 calling for the release of all political prisoners. National security forces responded to widespread peaceful demonstrations with the use of brutal violence. The Syrian President Bashar al-Assad refused to stop attacks and allow for implementation of the reforms requested by the demonstrators. By July 2011, firsthand accounts emerged from witnesses, victims, and the media that government forces had subjected innocent civilians to detention, torture, and the use of heavy weaponry. The Syrian people were also subjected to the Shabiha, a largely armed state sponsored militia fighting with security forces. Al-Assad continually denied responsibility to these crimes and placed blame on the armed groups and terrorists for these actions.

  • Iraq Violation of Human Rights

    1499 Words  | 3 Pages

    The world has been known to be an unsafe and otherwise bad place to be due to the evils that exist within it. Governments have since created a Declaration of Human Rights that specify the rights that individuals are born with. This declaration explicitly states thirty different rules that one must obey. Among these rules includes a comprehensive explanation of what any individual inalienably accesses. Despite these rules that are set in stone, some groups or territories do not follow such guidelines and thus are put on a watch to try and fix the predicaments that are occurring. A country that falls victim to this category is Iraq. This country has underwent many trials and tribulations due to its problematic individuals that are generally directed at thwarting the United States of America. These individuals are well known terroristic groups including Al Qaeda and the Taliban that have done quite the opposite of what the Declaration of Human Rights elucidates. From mass killings within their confines to attacking the United States of America, the groups are oblivious to the rights that humans should have. Iraqi officials correlate with these groups and thus make the entire country hazardous. The officials loose sympathy and empathy for the human being entity and treat them as nothing more than dirt that must follow orders with no freedoms. Iraq has been violating important human rights, deserting its land of choice and autonomy by denying the Iraqi citizens the rights to gather and peacefully protest against ideas and virtues that they disagree with, executing prisoners without proper trial and torturing its people for various profound reasons.

  • Who is a Child? The Definition of a Child

    1940 Words  | 4 Pages

    This research paper looks at the definition of a child as expressed in four fields: international law, international child convention, Sharia and Islamic law, and Arab countries. A child is considered any person below the age of 18 years of age. However, each of the four fields has its own modifications of the definition. For instance, the international law and international child conventional loosely consider the age of 18 years as the upper limit of childhood, as they provide a room for countries in which the age of majority may be attained earlier than 18 years. In the four fields, a child is considered dependent on their parents and communities for protection and financial and social support. However, the four fields have a few controversies in the way they define and treat children. For instance, Sharia and Islamic laws want children aged 7 years and above held responsible for their actions and subjected to corporal punishment if found guilty of criminal offenses. On the other hand, the international law and international child convention prohibit corporal punishment of children regardless of their age.
