Terrorism(1)
Terrorism has its roots in early resistance and political movements throughout history. It is defined as using violence or threats of violence for political, religious, or ideological change. There are various perspectives on terrorism from terrorists, victims, and the general public. What motivates terrorists can be explained through psychological, ideological, and strategic perspectives. While terrorism has no religion, certain terrorist organizations like Al Qaeda, ISIS, and Boko Haram have used interpretations of Islam to justify violence. Addressing the root causes of terrorism like poverty, inequality, and lack of education are recommended to counter terrorism.
Total war
Total war is characterized by making no distinction between combatants and civilians, with the aim of destroying the enemy's resources and ability to continue fighting. It allows all types of weapons. Napoleon's wars in the early 19th century marked the beginning of total war in Western history. Civil wars can also be total wars if they aim to take control of a country or region. Sun Tzu and Clausewitz discussed total war, with Clausewitz stating that "War is a continuation of policy by other means." The consequences of total war can be immense human costs as well as revolutionary changes to warfare, economics, and politics, as seen in World War I.

Anti-colonial terrorist groups in the 1920s-1960s aimed to force colonial powers to withdraw from territories. New Left terrorists in the post-WWII era embraced Marxist ideals and targeted symbols of capitalism. The current Religious wave began in 1979 with groups seeking to establish Islamic rule, such as al-Qaeda and ISIS carrying out large-scale attacks against the West.

While not all Germans agreed with Hitler, there was almost no widespread opposition to Nazi policies under their authoritarian rule.

The Nazis established an extensive police state to effectively control Germany from 1933-1945, allowing no opposition. The Gestapo secret police, under Reinhard Heydrich, had sweeping arrest powers and used informants extensively to instill fear. Nazi courts and police helped enforce totalitarian rule by ignoring crimes of Nazi agents. The SS, led by Heinrich Himmler, grew into a huge organization responsible for concentration and death camps where Jews, Slavs, and opponents were imprisoned and murdered. Over 6 million Jews died in death camps such as Auschwitz as part of the Nazis' systematic "Final Solution."

Article - feldkamp -- the past is prologue-2
Terrorism has existed throughout history in various forms to pursue political and ideological goals. The document traces the evolution of terrorism through four waves beginning with anarchist groups in the late 19th century seeking to disrupt the social order through violence. The second wave involved anti-colonial groups in the 1920s-1960s that used violence to force colonial powers to withdraw. The third wave during the Cold War era saw leftist groups use symbolic attacks to advocate for political change. The current fourth wave since 1979 has been defined by large-scale attacks by religious extremist groups like al-Qaeda and ISIS seeking to establish a caliphate. Understanding the historical context of terrorism's changing forms can help address current threats while maintaining societal values

Martinez, kenrick article
The document discusses the needs of a state in order to function properly and avoid failure. It argues that the most important needs are:
1. Firm laws and regulations to protect citizens and enable proper functioning.
2. Proper governance from the government to lead the country in the right direction and diminish corruption.
3. Accountability and transparency to eliminate issues like nepotism and ensure proper budget oversight.
4. A charismatic leader with a vision to enact positive change and plans based on agreements. Other needs include managing public funds, limiting unnecessary borrowing, and creating opportunities for citizens. Meeting these needs helps states to be sovereign and avoid relying on external support.
Two Nations Indivisible
Shannon O'Neil's book "Two Nations Indivisible" examines the political, economic, and social transformation between Mexico and the United States and argues their relationship should be strengthened. O'Neil believes a wall between the two countries is the wrong approach and that expanding bilateral ties should be a priority. While Mexico's economy is growing, the drug war and corruption negatively impact security and inequality. O'Neil argues the U.S. needs a new approach that balances trade to benefit both countries and supports Mexico's efforts to fight poverty and reform its political system.
Garifuna final
The document discusses the Garinagu people, who are descendants of Arawak and Carib slaves who shipwrecked in Honduras in the early 1800s.

Letter to the editor
The document is a letter written by Jason Chavez sharing his experience growing up poor in Belize City and how he was able to improve his education level. He describes living with his family in a small, flooded house with no running water or electricity. Through hard work and determination, he was able to graduate high school and earn an associate's degree in math. He advises today's youth to read widely, further their education as much as possible, never give up on their goals, find an activity they enjoy, and work extremely hard, as education is the key to overcoming poverty.
