Egypt's Hunger Strikes

Mohammad Soltan a 26 year old graduate from the Ohio State University was arrested in 2013 for sympathizing with Muslim brotherhood. Which his father was the one who was sympathizing but since he wasn't home. Mohammad was arrested in his place and charged with his "crimes". Mohammad has been in prison has set a record for the longest hunger strike recorded in Egyptian prisons. Not only him but other too have joined him in this hunger strike to show protest the inhumane conditions of the Egyptian prison system. Some of the guards have tried to force feed the prisoners but it has yet to succeed. Hopefully Soltan doesn't 

die.

The Threats to America from the Islamic State

The Islamic state has released a one minute video portraying war and violence between United States troops and jihadists. The video is a trailer for a full length propaganda movie being created. However the video is of poor quality made using computer generated fires and explosions. Overall it's just a way to try and get attention to make Obama send ground combat troops to the Middle East. Nothing more than an annoyance, the equivalent to a kid taunting another kid to a fight.

Scotland's Moment of Destiny

Today Thursday September eighteenth Scotland is voting on whether or not to leave the United Kingdom and become its own country. Scotland has been a very independent land, they pretty much function as a country with their own parliament and seperate systems from the rest of the United Kingdom. However the rest of the United Kingdom wants them to stay and are using threats to keep them in the Kingdom. They told them they won't let Scotland keep the British sterling as a currency if they break apart from them. Which is holding many Scots back from voting a definite yes.

Anti-Japanese Wartime Shows Dominate Chinese Television

The genre of anti-Japanese wartime shows has taken about 70% of the Chinese television market.  The Chinese government is pumping money into these shows to improve patriotism in the Chinese public. These shows seem to be fueled from Chinese and Japanese tension that has been there since World War Two. This has however led to many different outcomes for china, with some Chinese becoming full on nationalists and patriots wanting to fight to the death for China, while others have flocked to Japan and some have embraced Japanese culture while still living in China.

Israeli and Palestinian Kidnappings

Israelis had kidnapped a young teen by the name of Mohammad Khadeir, and burnt him alive because of Palestinian protests, the neighborhood he lived in held a walking funeral and it turned into a protest and a violent one at that. The Palestinian side threatened that for every one man the Israelis kill/kidnap they will kill/kidnap ten. "The blood of Mohammad Khadeir will not be forgotten" said one Palestinian citizen. The city of Jerusalem had wouldn't let men aged 16-40 enter the city because the threat of a bombing was more open. The end of the video is a protest and as you see the protest ends peacefully.

What truly makes a man poor is it the absence of someone in their lives or is it society? Does having a father affect the male or female child more? Well statistically the male child would have a lessened chance to truly succeed in life compared to the female child. What else affects the child?  Well obviously the location and the social structure around the growing child will have drastic changes to the child.  What makes people poor? Way too much.
