Islamic fundamentalism : Whos faulty for that ? Part 2
The Great war would start one year later, in 1914.France , Russia and England were interested in stopping the German growth, meanwhile , Austria-Hungary was trying to solve diplomatic problems with Serbia.Turkey , with Nacionalist ideas ( as seen in part one) , stayed by germans side, while the rest of the Ottoman Empire stayed with the Entente Powers.
In the end of WW1 , french and brittish dismembered the whole Ottoman Empire , creating new countries with new artificial borders.And so, mixing different nations with different religions,cultures and habits.As the leaders , they chose arabics* who were going to facilitate the european intervention in those places.The oil on the middle east is now a good reason to dominate the area.
The Palestine was a country created in a region inhabited by arabics* and jews, wich had British influences.Arabics and Jews had too many different views and couldnt live together.Brittish ,in 1947, let UN choose the best option for what to do with country.They decided to divide Palestine in two states ,one for each people.The jews accepted , but the arabics didnt.One year later , a region inside the Palestine , Israel, considered as the “Holy Land” for both of them was invaded by the neighbour countries, starting the first of six wars between arabics and jews.
Palestine (Arabic) Militia
In 1949 an agreement was signed , and Israel stayed with part of Jerusalem,bigger than what it was supposed to, the other part was given to Egypt and Jordan.The arabics didnt recieve their part.And untill nowadays they fight for their land.Its commom the use of terrorism attack,such as suicide bombers.
And the segregation in middle east is not over.The Cold War intensified the divergences , creating two antagonic groups:
-The monarchies countries with strong western capitalist influence ,especially, by the USA;
Ex:Saudi Arabia ; Jordan ; Morocco (Not in middle east, but just under Spain) .
-The countries supported by the Soviet Union, created by anti western revoluctions and with nacionalist ideology and socialist economy.
Ex:Egypt , Lybia , Algeria, Iraq , Afghanistan and Syria.
Communism Against Capitalism : World’s bipolarization on Cold War
Due to its geographical position , Afghanistan has been vulnerable to invasions.Since Sec XIX , Iraq had a monarchy, which last untill 1973, when was established a dictatorship inspired on Soviet Union models, governed by Daud Khan.After the strong pressure from islamic groups supported by USA, specially Taleban, ,and lots of attempts to take the power,conflicts destroyed the country , and 2,5 millions of citizens runned away.in 1979 , Daud Khan was killed and The USSR invaded the country , killing 15 000 russians and one million afghanistans.In the 80s , Osama Bin Laden, Al Qaeda’s leader , were supported by the Americans , went to Aphganistan to fight against soviets.
In 1998 , USA shot missions against Aphganistan , saying they were terrorist international centers.One year later, UN restricted international flies and demanded that Osama Bin Laden must had been judged in an international court.4 years later , happened just what we were talking about in the beggining of Part one.
The socialist countries , specially Egypt , tried to create an unique Arabic Socialist State, but they were defeated in 1967 , in a war against Israel, and the corruption of their leaders led them to a crisis.This crisis was the main reason for the Islamic Fundamentalistm. Where the religion is , once again , together with the state , trying to bring back the times where the Islam had power.Fundamentalist says the Islam were wrong when they adopted the western way of life.Because the western power destroyed the Islam.
Seeing the whole thing , its easy to see that fundamentalism is the feedback of the western intervention in middle east.The imperialism and the capitalism domination is responsable for the worst crisis in the history of the world.Just understanding the past, is possible to change the future and prevent the world from future catastrophies.
