a) Couve de Murville's prediction was very correct. When the Americans withdrawed all of their offers to help Nasser nationalised the Suez canal so that he could use the it's revenues to finance the Aswan High Dam.
b) When Nasser nationalised the canal the Brits and the French were outraged because they were the main financiers and shareholders of the Suez Canal. They wanted Nasser destroyed and removed.By August 1956 the British and the French were holding meetings to discuss a possible seizure of the Suez canal by force . The French wanted the Israelis to join their side but it would have been a problem because the Brits had a treaty with Jordan. However , when they found out that

Cold war

The original members were Britain, the USA , the USSR, France and China, because they were the five victors in the II World War. The other six seats were given to states in rotation. The five victors also have extra power so they can cancel (veto) the UN's decisions ( any decision has to be passed by at least seven members and five of them have to be the so called'' Big Five''). I think it was allowed because those five were the major powers of the world on what the peace of the world depended . c) The specialized Agencies of the United Nations were the International Telecommunications Union ITU , which co-ordinates the telegraph and telephone links between countries and the Universal Postal Union UPU which performed a similar service for mail. Those two were some of the older international organisations. It also inherited some departments from the Leafue of Nations like the International Labor Organization ILO , which employs experts to make studies of the

Britain history.

The uprising was put down, but the brutal methods used by the British troops strengthened Irish resistance and let to the formation of the Irish Republican Army (IRA) who fought against British occupation. This resulted, in 1921, in independence being conceded to the 26 counties of southern Ireland, which became the Republic of Eire in 1949. Ulster was allowed to remain within the United Kingdom. Eventually, in 1969, the British government sent in the British Army to restore peace, but they became the enemies. Relations reached their worst point in 1972 on Bloody Sunday when British troops fired on a civil right demonstration in Derry, killing thirteen people. In reaction to this and other atrocities, the IRA began a military and terrorist campaign against British rule which is still continuing. Nowadays there are many people who want uniting the two parts of Ireland, but there are also as many people who can't imagine living without British rule.

a vassal in exchange for protection. The decline of feudalism can be marked by the crusades. *Edward the Confessor ­ was an Anglo-Saxon King of England and the last of the House of Wessex. His reign marked the continuing disintegration of royal power in England and the enlargement of the great territorial counts. Edward was canonized and is regarded as the patron saint of kings, difficult marriages, and separated spouses and the Royal Family. Edward's reign was marked by peace and prosperity. He married Edith, daughter of Earl Godwin of Wessex, but they were childless. It was during the reign of Edward that some features of the English monarchy familiar today were introduced. Edward is regarded as responsible for introducing the royal seal and coronation regalia. *Harold Godwinson ­ was the last Anglo-Saxon King of England before the Norman Conquest. Harold was a strong political and military leader in his own right. Edward the

THE CAPITALIST NIGER

want others to succeed. You can hear them complaining – he behaves like a honkie (Caucasian) just because he has little money. As a Capitalist Nigger, you must look into the eyes of your friends and tell them to f&%k off. When you succeed in building a successful company, hire some of them, but keep them at arm’s length; never allow them to report directly to you. You should heed the adage that familiarity breeds contempt; these people can derail your organizational peace by their attitude of isn’t- this-the-person-I-used-to-know. And if after giving them the opportunity to earn a living and they still don’t get it, have them fired immediately. Don’t feel any remorse. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER Right now, it would appear that the present generation of Blacks prefer to dwell on the accomplishments of their forebears. Yes, we talk about our Egyptian cousins who built the Pyramids, who really don’t prefer to be regarded as Blacks but rather Arabs

Terrorism and fighting against it

Terrorism and fighting against it Terrorism is not new and even though it has been used since the beginning of recorded history it can be relatively hard to define. Terrorism has been described differently as both a tactic and strategy; a crime and a holy duty; a justified reaction to oppression and an unforgivable abomination. Obviously, a lot depends on whose point of view it is being represented. Terrorism has often been an effective tactic for the weaker side in a conflict. Terrorism is most common in nations with the average political freedom, and is least common in the most democratic nations. In some cases, terrorism has been a means to carry on a conflict without the antagonist realizing the nature of the threat, mistaking terrorism for criminal activity. Because of these characteristics, terrorism has become increasingly common among those extreme goals throughout the world. But despite its popularity, terrorism can be a confusing concept. Even within the U.S. Gove
