The Nature of Conflict in Yemen
The document summarizes the key events in Yemen's recent political conflict and transition. It outlines periods from 2000-2015 where Al-Qaeda gained prominence and carried out attacks; protests in 2011 inspired by Tunisia led to a power transfer; and a critical transition phase from 2013-2014 saw Houthi rebels overrun the capital and plunge the country into civil war, prompting military intervention by a Saudi-led coalition to stop the Houthis from gaining more ground. The document also lists the main players involved as the Republic of Yemen, Houthis, Islamic State, UK, US, Saudi Arabia, Iran, and Spain.
The Yemen Crisis (1)
The Houthis began as a religious group in the 1990s but have since become rebels engaged in an ongoing conflict with the Yemen government. They have taken control of the capital Sanaa and large swaths of the country. Other competitors in the war include Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, Al-Islah political movement, and the secessionist Al-Hirak movement in Southern Yemen. The U.S. is involved due to threats from Al-Qaeda affiliates in Yemen. The first war between Yemen and the Houthis erupted in 2004. The Houthis have demanded fuel subsidies be reinstated and that the government reflect political groups' representation from a national conference. Saudi Arabia led an Arab coalition
22.3 - SW Asia The Northeast
The document discusses the geopolitics of Southwest Asia and the Middle East. It covers the ethnic and religious diversity of the region, including the Kurdish people who lack a sovereign state. It also summarizes the Iran-Iraq War from 1980 to 1988, which killed over 1 million people and devastated both countries' economies and infrastructure. Finally, it provides an overview of Iraq's invasion of Kuwait in 1990 and the US-led coalition that drove Iraqi forces out of Kuwait in the Persian Gulf War.
The Yemen War
Yemen has been devastated by a war between Houthi rebels and forces loyal to the Yemeni government since 2015. Over 7,600 people have been killed and 42,000 injured in the ongoing conflict, which has triggered a major humanitarian crisis leaving 70% of Yemen's population of 24 million in need of aid. The capital and largest city is Sanaa, and Islam is the dominant religion, though there are small Christian and Jewish populations.
Migration A2
The document discusses different types of human migration including forced migration, voluntary migration, periodic movement, and cyclic movement. It describes push and pull factors that influence why people migrate, including things like wars, economies, traditions, and family ties. Specific examples of regional, national, and global migration flows throughout history are provided, such as European colonization and more recent refugee crises in Africa, Asia, and Europe. Laws and policies that governments implement to control and restrict migration are also outlined.
Iran and iraq
Iran and Iraq went to war for eight years over territorial disputes along the Shatt-al-Arab river and religious differences, as Iran had a Shia government while Iraq was led by Sunni Saddam Hussein, who sought to become the most powerful leader in the Middle East; ultimately, neither side gained any territory from the costly war which ended in a UN-brokered ceasefire.
Saddam hussein & Iraq
It englights the era of Iraq under the leadership of Saddam hussein untill he was executed. I have analysed Saddam's tenure including Iran-Iraq war, both Gulf wars and Substance of Anarchy embedled in Iraq while scrutinizes his policies and Baa'th agenda.
The Unknown Territory
The document summarizes presentations on several Middle Eastern countries:
- Turkey, Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Saudi Arabia.
- It provides brief overviews of each country's population, history, government, culture, and current issues related to things like poverty, women's rights, and ongoing conflicts.

HSIE - Australia In The Vietnam War
The document discusses the Vietnam War and its impact on Vietnamese refugees. It describes how the war from 1962 to 1972 led over 2 million Vietnamese to flee their country by boat to escape the communist regime, becoming known as the "Vietnamese Boat People". Many faced dangerous journeys and overcrowded conditions, with some never reaching their destinations. The document then focuses on the approximately 94,000 Vietnamese refugees that settled in Australia during this period, initially living in refugee camps before being accepted into communities and adapting to Australian culture, making significant contributions.
Middle east conflicts
The document summarizes several Middle East conflicts of the 21st century. It discusses the fall of the Ottoman Empire and the establishment of borders by European powers that blended different ethnic groups. It also covers the historical roots of Judaism and Israel, the creation of Israel, and questions over who has rights to the land. The document then discusses the Persian Gulf War, US intervention in other countries, the US invasion of Afghanistan following 9/11, and the US invasion of Iraq over weapons of mass destruction.
The Middle East Cold War
Source: Looking Glass Publications
By Linda Lavender, Writer / Robin Barnett, Editor
Understanding the past proxies is relevant to the recent unrest in the Middle East, which is often mischaracterized as a purely sectarian conflict. While clearly there is a sectarian component to ongoing unrest in the region, the conflicts, both latent and manifest within Lebanon, Iraq, Syria and Yemen are often reported as a struggle between opposing religious sects - Sunnis and Shiites. However, according to F. Gregory Gause of the Brookings Institution, the best way to understand regional politics and the current unrest in the Middle East is through a Cold War framework between Saudi Arabia and the Republic of Iran where the central issue is that of regional hegemony.
Libya as a Failed State: Causes, Consequences, Options
This document provides background on Libya's descent into a failed state following its 2011 revolution. It describes the divisions in Libya along ideological, regional and tribal lines that have led to ongoing conflict. It notes that Libya initially showed signs of progress after the revolution, with political and economic development as well as integration of former rebels. However, armed militias increasingly exerted influence and undermined state authority. Competing governments now control parts of Libya, the country is divided, and terrorist groups have gained a foothold. Outside powers have also intervened militially while supporting opposing factions. As a result, Libya meets the criteria of a failed state with no central authority over its territory or monopoly on the use of force.
South China Sea pptx
China claims nearly the entire South China Sea based on its nine-dash line map from 1947. The South China Sea is an important strategic and economic waterway that contains valuable oil, gas, fisheries, and shipping lanes. China seeks to balance American influence in the region and assert sovereignty over disputed islands and territories in order to gain control of the South China Sea's resources and establish regional hegemony. However, China's territorial claims have been rejected by an international tribunal and are contested by several neighboring countries.
The Rise and Fall of Saddam Hussein
Saddam Hussein was born in 1937 in Iraq and lived with his uncle after his father passed away. He joined the Ba'ath party in 1957 and gained control of the Iraqi government in 1979 when he became president. Saddam invaded Iran in 1980 to gain control of their oil fields, starting the Iran-Iraq war which ended in stalemate in 1988. In 1990, Saddam invaded Kuwait to boost Iraq's economy with their oil revenues but was met with international sanctions. Saddam Hussein was finally captured by U.S. troops in 2003 hiding in a hole on a farm near his hometown of Tikrit.
3, results of the gulf war
The Gulf War resulted in a successful military operation that removed Iraqi forces from Kuwait and restored the Al-Sabah family to power. However, it did little to bring stability to the Middle East. While allied casualties were low, Iraqi casualties were estimated to be between 20,000-200,000 deaths. Iraq's infrastructure and environment suffered extensive damage. The war strengthened US influence in the region but also increased anti-American sentiment in some Muslim communities. It failed to remove Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq.
Iraq War- 2003
This document provides an overview of the American invasion of Iraq in 2003, known as Operation Iraqi Freedom. It discusses the historical context of Iraq, the buildup to the war, the American political and economic motivations. It then describes the military strategy and execution of the invasion, which saw a large coalition force quickly defeat Iraqi forces. The document concludes by examining the role and future relevance of international organizations like the United Nations in the post-war period and new American dominance.
Persian Gulf War
The Persian Gulf War began in August 1990 when Iraq invaded Kuwait, claiming Kuwait was stealing Iraqi oil and territory. Iraq's leader Saddam Hussein expected the US and Saudi Arabia would not intervene. However, the US led a coalition of forces to defend Saudi Arabia and liberate Kuwait under Operation Desert Shield. In January 1991, the US-led coalition launched a massive air campaign called Operation Desert Storm targeting Iraqi forces and infrastructure. After weeks of aerial bombardment and missile attacks, a short ground invasion by US-led forces in February 1991 crushed the Iraqi army and liberated Kuwait within 100 hours, with minimal allied casualties. The war re-established US credibility and intervention in the region.
A Perilious Journey
The document summarizes the global migrant crisis, noting that an unprecedented number of people - around 60 million or the population of Great Britain - have fled war, persecution, or economic instability in search of better lives. They undertake perilous journeys, but often face hostility in their destinations. The largest sources of migrants are Syria, with over 4 million refugees fleeing its civil war, and sub-Saharan Africa, where the spread of jihadist groups is exacerbating problems. The crisis is reshaping the world in ways that are difficult to predict due to its new, complicated, and global scale.
The refugees*
This document discusses refugees and defines them as people who have left their country due to fear of persecution for reasons such as religion, nationality, or political views. It describes different types of refugees such as environmental, war, health, economic, and political refugees. It also discusses the refugee crisis in Europe in 2016 when over 1 million people crossed the Mediterranean Sea seeking security and protection. The document concludes by discussing the importance of raising awareness about the harsh realities faced by refugees worldwide.
M I G R A T I O N A2
The document discusses different types of human migration including forced migration, voluntary migration, periodic movement, and cyclic movement. It also examines push and pull factors that influence migration decisions, including things like war, economics, technology, family ties, and government policies. Major topics of migration discussed include refugees fleeing conflicts in places like Rwanda, Sudan, Afghanistan, Yugoslavia and Vietnam. Governments can influence migration through border controls, immigration laws, and policies around legal vs illegal immigration.
Sec4 express chapter1(managing peace & security-iraq&kuwait)lect2
Here are some reflection questions to consider:
- Briefly describe one reaction to the Iraq invasion of Kuwait: The Arab League voted to condemn Iraq's actions and withdraw support, but some members did not support this vote, showing divisions in responses.
- What were the categories of impacts of the Iraq-Kuwait War: Impacts on Kuwait, Iraq, the region/environment, and internationally.
- What was the UN's role in the Iraq-Kuwait War? The UN passed resolutions demanding withdrawal and instituted economic sanctions in an effort to force withdrawal, giving legitimacy to the military intervention.
- Is this war an example of how UN is successful in managing peace and stability? It shows both success, by must
Unit 3, Lesson 6
This document discusses the key leaders in the struggle for American Indian lands between the late 18th century and late 19th century. It outlines leaders who fought for Native American rights, such as Tecumseh who united tribes to defend their lands, and Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse who led resistance against U.S. seizure of the Black Hills. It also discusses pro-Native leaders like John Ross who defended Cherokee land rights in court. Meanwhile, President Andrew Jackson supported the Indian Removal Act of 1830 that displaced many Native Americans. Overall, the document provides a history of the leadership and events on both sides during the long-running conflict over ownership of Native American territories.
Migration
This document discusses migration and refugees. It defines migration as movement between locations, such as from poor to rich states. Millions migrate illegally from the global South to the North for economic, political, educational, or religious reasons or to escape deprivation or displacement. Immigration creates winners and losers as immigrants provide cheap labor but may compete with local workers, though they generally benefit the host economy. States try to limit immigration due to fears over integration and illegal immigration. International law distinguishes migrants seeking economic opportunities from refugees fleeing war, disasters, or persecution who are entitled to asylum or refugee camps. Migration flows occur globally, such as within regions like South Asia or from regions like West Africa to other areas.
Chaos in Yemen
After 2 weeks of Saudi Arabian-led airstrkes, Houthi rebels in Yemen are undeterred and have captured the coastal city of Aden.
The Syrian Civil War
The Syrian Civil War began in 2011 with anti-government protests against President Bashar al-Assad before escalating into a full-scale civil war. Over 450,000 Syrians have been killed and more than 11 million displaced as forces loyal to Assad battle opposition groups. The war involves four overlapping conflicts between Assad and opposition forces, Syria's Kurdish minority, the Islamic State, and foreign countries intervening to support various factions. Six years after protests began, the war continues with no end in sight as the humanitarian crisis worsens.
Syria: A Country in Conflict
Syria is a Middle Eastern country located between Turkey, Iraq, Jordan, Israel and Lebanon. It has a population of about 23 million people who are predominantly Sunni Muslim, along with religious minority groups like Shia, Druze and Alawite Muslims. Syria has a diverse history of being conquered by various empires and gained independence from France in 1946. The current regime is led by President Bashar al-Assad, whose family has ruled the country since 1970. In 2011, protests erupted against Assad's rule but escalated into an ongoing civil war between government forces and various rebel groups composed of dissidents, with over 60,000 deaths in the first 18 months of conflict.
Genocide In Darfur
The civil war between northern and southern Sudan led to conflict in the Darfur region. The Sudanese government armed Arab militias called the Janjaweed to attack ethnic African groups. Nearly 400,000 people were killed and over 2 million displaced as villages were burned and wells poisoned. The U.S. declared this a genocide. International efforts have sought to stop the violence and aid refugees, but attacks continue against African groups in Darfur.
