The three major monotheistic religions - Judaism, Christianity, and Islam - originated in Southwest Asia and share some common beliefs but also have key differences. Judaism began with the Israelites and belief in God/Yahweh over 3,700 years ago. Christianity arose from Judaism through the teachings of Jesus Christ and his disciples. Islam was founded in the 7th century by the prophet Muhammad and is the youngest of the three faiths. All three religions believe in one supreme god and have important holy texts, but they differ in their prophets, holy days, and some religious practices and beliefs.

The Middle East- Introduction
The Middle East spans a large territory including Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Israel, Iraq, Iran and Turkey. It has been an important crossroads for trade and religion throughout history as the birthplace of Christianity, Judaism and the origins of the modern English alphabet and numbering system. The geography of the region, including deserts, mountains and coastlines, has significantly impacted its history by influencing the locations of major settlements near water and enabling the spread of trade and religion across great distances. The Arab people have historically lived as nomadic Bedouins or in oasis towns and villages, with trade and camel domestication playing important roles in their societies.

Who is prophet Muhammad (saw) By Khurram Murad
This document provides biographical information about the prophet Muhammad. It describes how he was born in 570 CE in Makkah to a noble family from the Quraysh tribe. It discusses how he became orphaned at a young age and was raised by his grandfather and uncle. As an adult, he worked as a merchant and married Khadijah. The document then describes the first revelation Muhammad received from Gabriel at age 40, and how his wife Khadijah and friend Abu Bakr immediately believed him. It provides context about prophecies in Jewish and Christian scriptures that pointed to Muhammad.
The muslim world
Here are a few thoughts on your journal entry:
All groups have extremes that can be dangerous if their views promote harming others. However, it is unfair and factually incorrect to characterize an entire religion or group based on its extremes. The vast majority of religious adherents of all faiths practice their beliefs peacefully.
It is important to separate dangerous actions from beliefs. While certain actions that harm people should be condemned and prevented, beliefs alone do not necessarily indicate danger. People of all backgrounds are equally capable of both violence and peace.
Rather than make blanket judgments, it is best to evaluate individuals and groups based on their specific words and deeds. Promoting understanding between all people usually helps reduce tensions more than generalized fears
ISRAEL PAPER
The document provides an overview of Israel, including its demographics, socio-cultural aspects, legal/bureaucratic environment, and economic climate. It notes that Israel has a population of over 6 million Jews and over 1.5 million Arabs. Culturally, Israel contains a diverse, multi-ethnic society with Jews and Arabs maintaining their unique identities. Israel has a parliamentary legal system based on western principles with courts that oversee civil, criminal, military, and religious matters. Economically, Israel is a leader in new technologies and partnerships with countries like India.
Islam good overview
Islam originated with the revelations received by the prophet Muhammad in the 7th century. Muslims believe in one God called Allah and that Muhammad is his final prophet. The central text of Islam is the Quran, which Muslims believe contains the verbatim word of God. The five pillars of Islam are the shahada (declaration of faith), salat (prayer), zakat (charity), sawm (fasting during Ramadan), and hajj (pilgrimage to Mecca). Islam spread rapidly across the world due to its simple and portable practices, tolerance of other faiths, use of trade routes, and military campaigns. Today there are over 1 billion Muslims worldwide, with Indonesia having the largest population

Labor unions
A pro to labor unions is increased wages as unions can negotiate higher pay. However, a con is that unions could cause workers to lose their jobs if businesses look elsewhere for workers or replace them in response to union demands. Workers have to decide if the potential for higher pay through a union is worth the risk of possibly losing their job.
Robber barons or captains of industry 2011
The document discusses debates around the business practices of prominent late 19th century American industrialists and financiers known as "robber barons". It presents arguments on both sides, discussing whether these businessmen positively contributed to American economic growth through job creation and philanthropy, or exploited workers and natural resources to amass personal fortunes through monopolies and lack of regulation. The complexities in evaluating their actions and impacts are noted.
immigration and urbanization
The document discusses the mass immigration to U.S. cities in the late 19th century following the Civil War. Millions of European and Asian immigrants arrived seeking opportunity but faced challenges assimilating. They lived in overcrowded tenement neighborhoods and faced discrimination, while their cheap labor fueled industrialization and urbanization. Political machines exploited new immigrants by providing services in exchange for votes.

Nioxon to ford 2011
The document discusses Richard Nixon's presidency and the Watergate scandal that led to his resignation. It describes how Nixon pursued a "Southern Strategy" and policy of "New Federalism" to decentralize power. However, his administration was overwhelmed by the Watergate break-in scandal after it was revealed that Nixon had tried to cover it up. Facing impeachment, Nixon resigned in 1974 and was replaced by Vice President Gerald Ford, who pardoned Nixon in an attempt to move past the scandal but saw his approval ratings drop as a result.
Ford to Carter
- Gas prices were reaching new highs in the 1970s due to OPEC raising oil prices and implementing production cuts, leading to gas rationing in some states. This contributed to economic "stagflation", where inflation and unemployment both increased.
- President Carter focused on the energy crisis and conservation but was unsuccessful. He initiated the Camp David Accords between Israel and Egypt but most Arab nations opposed it. Iranian revolutionaries took 52 American hostages in 1979 which Carter failed to gain the release of.

The AIDS epidemic emerged and spread rapidly through unprotected sex and needle sharing, though the Reagan administration was slow to address the crisis.

Conservativism and reagan
The document provides background information on the rise of conservatism in the United States during the late 1970s and 1980s. It discusses how Ronald Reagan appealed to conservative voters who were frustrated with the economy and foreign policy. Reagan was elected president in 1980 on a platform of tax cuts, increased military spending, and limited government. As president, Reagan implemented economic and foreign policies aimed at reducing the size and role of government.
Terrorism 2010
Terrorism poses a major threat to global security today. Terrorists often target civilians to instill fear and further political, religious, or ideological goals. While terrorism has been used as a tactic for over 200 years, the number of worldwide attacks and their violence has increased in recent decades, with few regions spared. Notable terrorist attacks of the early 2000s include the 2004 Madrid train bombings, the 2005 London bombings, and the 2008 Mumbai attacks.

Vietnam johnson takes over
The document discusses several aspects of the Vietnam War from the US perspective, including:
1) How the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution gave President Lyndon Johnson authority to escalate US involvement without a formal declaration of war.
2) The increasing US troop levels from 16,000 in 1963 to 500,000 by 1968.
3) The tactics and challenges of fighting in the Vietnamese jungle against an enemy that used guerilla warfare and hid among the civilian population.
4) The US strategy of using air power and defoliants like Agent Orange to destroy jungle cover and force the Viet Cong into open battles, but this failed to change the course of the war.
China and the rise of communism
The document summarizes the rise of communism in China from 1911 to the present. It describes how nationalist and communist forces struggled for control of China in the early 20th century. Mao Zedong established communist rule in 1949, but his radical policies like the Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution resulted in tens of millions of deaths and economic stagnation. After Mao's death in 1976, China adopted market-oriented reforms under Deng Xiaoping that have led to rapid economic growth, but the communist government still restricts political and religious freedom.
The new frontier, kennedy election to warren
This document provides background information on John F. Kennedy's campaign for president and early presidency. It discusses how his charismatic personality and performance in televised debates against Richard Nixon helped him win the 1960 election. As president, Kennedy initiated ambitious domestic programs and worked to advance civil rights, but also faced rising Cold War tensions abroad before his assassination in 1963.
Kennedy and cuban missile crisis 2011
Two things changed the 1960 election in Kennedy's favor: the first televised debates, where Kennedy appeared more confident and youthful compared to Nixon, and Catholics swung heavily for Kennedy, the first Catholic president. Nixon said that Kennedy lacked experience. The Cuban Missile Crisis was the most dramatic crisis Kennedy faced as president, brought about when U.S. planes discovered Soviet nuclear missiles in Cuba that could reach major U.S. cities within minutes. After 13 tense days, Khrushchev agreed to remove the missiles in exchange for Kennedy agreeing privately not to invade Cuba and publicly to remove obsolete U.S. missiles from Turkey.
