The first section I will be talking to you about is the act of prohibiting the wearing of burqas in the United States. The second point I will be discussing about is my point of view on the act of prohibiting Syrian and/or Saudi Arabian refugees from entering the United states without presidential approval. The final section I will be discussing to you about is about Immigrants

At a camp at Kohat, Pakistan there were two suicide bombers, disguised with burqas, that struck the camp. The attack killed 41 people and injured about 62 people. In another case there were seven Afghan Taliban terrorists who were wearing burqas. One of the members was wearing an explosive vest under the burqa and extra part and the 6 others had AK 47s, luckily nobody …show more content…

The 1st Amendment states Freedom of Religion. I personally think that if it is for that persons religious rights then they should not have to take it off. Now if they are suspected for having something hidden under it than that manager or employee of whatever should politely ask them to show under the burqa, if it is ok then they should be able to wear it, if it is not ok then they should be reported to the police and/or held captive until Police get there. There is also a negative part if the person wearing it clearly has something under it such as a bomb then they should not be able to wear it. Terrorist attacks happen, because there are people out there who are hiding bombs and other weapons under their burqa. I think the President needs to crack down on who should and who should not wear burqas. Now on to the next section I think that putting immigrants in commencement camps is the wrong idea. I guess it really depends on what they have done wrong if they have only crossed the border then they should not be kept in commencement caps all they wanted to do is just feel free. If they have done something very very bad then yes they should be held in a commencement camp but if they have done nothing wrong then they should not be held in commencement

1. The article that I found is about how the Federal Government was denied the ability to ban women from wearing their niquabs during a citizenship ceremony. The ban on niquabs was first brought to light when a Muslim woman from Pakistan named Zunera Ishaq tried to get Canadian citizenship, but she was unable to do so due to her unwillingness to remove her niquab. In the federal court ruling between the dispute amidst Zunera Ishaq and the government, Judge Keith Boswell stated that denying Zunera Ishaq her right to wear a niquab during her Canadian citizenship ceremony violates her freedom of religion. It was ruled that Zunera Ishaq was allowed to complete the ceremony while wearing her niquab.

There are 5 pillars of Islam, one being a Hajj to Mecca, that Muslims take part in to prove that they are good Muslims. Mansa Musa went on a Hajj for his religion, but he had other intentions for participating in this journey. Mansa Musa was a very wealthy leader of Mali who decided to go on this pilgrimage to Mecca to complete one of the 5 pillars of Islam, and he gave some of his gold to people who lived in the cities along the way where salt was abundant and gold was very valuable. Mansa Musa went to Mecca for his religion, but had other motivating factors. Mansa Musa could have gone through Timbuktu, but instead he decided to go the longer route, through Taghaza and Walata.

Just like many other sports cricket is often seen as “just a game,” but it has made a much bigger significance than one might expect. Cricket and politics were deeply intertwined in 20th century India. Cricket helped symbolize and influence political tensions between India and both Pakistan and England, along with other religious rivalry between ethnic groups. Despite this, matches fostered togetherness and became a source of both religious and national pride. Cecil Headlam, an English cricketer and historian, once said in 1903, that Cricket was used as the final step in British colonization.

The ANC or African national congress was formed in the 1920s but its most famous time was from the 1940s to the 1990s in which blacks fought for equality. Some of the tactics this group used can be considered terrorism used by the more radical members but many of the other party supporters were seen as freedom fighters. Much of this argument is based on points of view. To an extent the ANC can be seen as terrorist however it can be justified that they were freedom fighters.

Although Canada is one of the world’s most multicultural nations and is regarded as a leader in democracy, it has systematically targeted and excluded Muslim women from participating in their political freedom. Through the examination of the Niqab in Canadian society this essay will explore ways Muslim women have been “othered” in Canadian Society specifically concerned with the potential Niqab ban. A ban on the Niqab challenges and undermines the constitutional rights of Canadian Muslim women across Canada. A ban on the Niqab further segregates and excludes Canadian Muslim Woman, which in result incites a slur of negative outcomes.

I dedicated myself to wear modestly as I freed myself from vainglory, arrogance and pomposity. Hijab made me more conservative and not take things for granted. Whenever I had the hijab on, I felt complete and at ease. However, it also made me scared and tremble to the thought of being ostracized. I got many looks and judgements from people both in the subway and in school.

The word “Muslim” carries with it quite a bit of baggage since the horrid day of the 9/11 attack, and even before it as well. Many people recoil at just the sight of a Muslim woman’s covered head. The first thought that comes to mind, for many people, when picturing a Muslim is a rural man wearing a turban and speaking a foreign language. This image has not only greatly bothered many American Muslims; it has massively affected their day-to-day lives. Adnan Syed, for example, was greatly discriminated against in a courtroom whilst fighting for his freedom.

In 1939, Reza Shah’s unveiling declaration sparked a worldwide debate as to what the veil actually symbolizes. Ever since the beginning of Islam, women throughout the Islamic world have had to adopt the hijab as part of their cultural and religious attire due to various interpretations of the Islamic dress code. In addition, the Koran emphasizes purity in the name of Islam by asking both men and women to be modest when it comes to the way they dress. Furthermore, in his efforts to modernize Iran, Reza Shah failed to satisfy the needs of his people, as he gave women no say in what they could and could not wear in public. This eventually resulted in the division of Iranian women, as there were those who favored the Islamic tradition, and those who supported the regime and its adoption of Western values.

Suicide bombers are motivated by their own experiences and other factors that are beneficial to them. Some think that suicide bombers are mentally ill, or psychologically disturbed, because of their self-less act of suicide in a public community; however a suicide bomber can be a person with a normal life, offered an opportunity that comes with beneficial rewards. Political conflict is the main reason for suicide bombings, because of altruism, repression, and religion basis. Suicide bombers who experience severe depression from letdowns, repression can lead to the act of suicide in a public area. Shaker Masri was an attempted suicide bomber in Chicago, IL.

Stalin’s ideology and policies contributed towards his consolidation of power, he was effective in exploiting circumstances to defeat opposition and therefore put forward his ideas and policies for future Russia. Historian E. H. Carr argues that Stalin admitted “for a complete victory of socialism in one country, for a complete guarantee against a restoration of the old order of things, the combined efforts of the proletariat of several countries are indispensable” . This view backs the idea that Stalin used the proletariat as a tool for an increased power base to back his ideology of ‘Socialism in one Country’. Arguably, Stalin advocated the right policies at the right time, appealing to the majority of the party. This suggests that his policies

September 11th, 2001, a date marked by history. A day where thousands of Americans would wake up to their family, their friends, and the world one last time. Over 3,000 lives taken away because of the actions of a few terrorists who wanted nothing more than to watch America fall to the ground. Suicide Bombers cause global terror, and their motives and strategies are all part of a complex system of sacrifice and glory. Justifying the actions of these terrible people is almost impossible, but learning the origin of suicide bombers, examining their tactics, and discussing their motives will provide a better look inside the mind of a bomber and possibly give an explanation as to why terrorist attacks occur.
