20 April 2005. This article states that the United States economic need for oil is what is driving the President to be hostile towards Iran. It is very biased against the President. It uses America's "weapons of mass destruction" faulty reasoning in the war against Iraq as a basis for evaluating American relations with Iran. Pollack, Kenneth and Ray Takeyh.
Oil profits have been the motivating factors behind many attempts at counterinsurgency of democratic regimes by the CIA and the U.S in the Middle East (such as Iran in the 1950s, where the Shah replaced the Prime Minister who refused to give up oil rights to the U.S., and since the people couldnt deal with the Shah, an extremist government headed by the Ayatollah Khomeini ultimately prevailed). During the Iran-Iraq war, America supplied both sides with weapons and advice. These are not the actions of a rich superpower wanting peace. Lets not forget that Saddam Hussein, before being Americas vision of the Anti-Christ, was a close ally of the U.S., and the CIA. So what was the firm belief system of consecutive American administrations that caused all this to occur ?
While under the investigation the IRS has led Congress to believe that after lawmakers question the IRS over the undue scrutiny the agency put on conservative groups that filed for tax-exempt status during the 2012 elections, they'll want to take action -- to hold people accountable and eventually consider legislation to amend any systemic problems that led to this kind of political discrimination. The story offered perspective and no worldviews. Members of Congress are already questioning the IRS about the scandal behind closed doors, but the public line of questioning starts Wednesday, when Attorney General Eric Holder testifies before the House Judiciary Committee. Yes, there were some assumptions that the IRS was dealing under the table but the story did not go that far in-depth. The President stated in his speech that” IG is conducting a full investigation of the problem and that he cannot say what the
The authors use the different components of persuasion throughout the article. The title itself is very gripping that catches reader’s attention. Here, the authors describe the situation in Guantanamo as a scandal. In the very first paragraph, the authors bring out the case of U.S journalists being imprisoned by North Korea in 2009 and compare it to what is going on with Guantanamo and show how the roles have reversed. The authors end the paragraph with a very thought provoking question, “Shouldn’t we Americans apply the same high minded principles to our conduct?”.
No matter what one’s ideology is, some will blame a chamber of Congress, the other will blame the White House. It is clear that both used the proletariat masses as hostages to make the other side to capitulate because of their unnecessary suffering because of their willingness to throw a wrench in the cogs of the federal Government. In this day and age, partisan politics is just as much as a societal scourge as racism, sexism and other types of prejudicial strife. It is seemingly that the Founding Fathers intended to use a form of conflict theory that would keep American society in check. What has been called, “Checks and Balances” is indeed a form of conflict theory.

When Liberty is Over Shadow by Security 12/8/2013 Professor Darren Gil Southern University of New Orleans Abstract The purpose of the literature review is to bring awareness that logic behind the FISA Amendment Act is deeply flawed. The law in question is called the Foreign Intelligent Surveillance Act endorsed and expanded the warrantless surveillance program that President George W. Bush authorized shortly after 9/11. It gives the National Security Agency a virtual blank check to intercept Americans’ international phone calls and emails, to store them indefinitely in huge databases, and to share them with other agencies with few restrictions. This examination will discuss examples how the Federal government can invaded Americans’
