revolution Essay

         Hosni Mubarak and with a angry protest ready to fight he finally stepped down and let the military take control. Mubarak did not want to lose his power, but the treats to bomb gasoline stations and the creation of chaos was too much and had no other choice. He tried to stop the protest by sending his legendary security apparatus, but turned against him and marched to victory. Libya was ready to start a bloody revolution and burned many police stations and offices, and Colonel Qaddafi taught he could keep order. Rebels took advantage of all the aggression and caused Qaddafi to bring soldiers weapons.
          All revolutions start off with one motivaton and that is change, but with all the emotion and power of the people, peace can suddenly transform into violence. Without change many countries in today’s world including the United States would be corrupt and exploited. Revolutions have been done since the beginning of time and are still being formed by the countries that believe change is necessary. The most famous revolution that altered it’s nation completely is the Russian Revolution. With this Russian revolt came many opportunities to have new alliances and choose a new destiny. But not only did Russia confront it’s economic problems and instability, Egypt as well as Libya have followed into Russia’s foot steps to reform a better government. Of course, there are simmialrites and differences seen between the Russian Revolution and revolts in the Middle East regarding the demands of the people, the reactions of the leaders in power, the methods of protest and outcomes.
          The people of all countries deserve the right to have freedom and speak for themselves. And surprisingly in eighteen days of fear, but boldness the people of Egypt have stood up for police cruelty when a father was forced to burn himself alive. Many of the witnesses began to protest and in two days everyone joined in to fight for peace. Just like Egypt, almost a hundred years ago Russian factory woman began a protest because bread was not available and pretty soon the men joined to create a revolution. In the nation full of oil, Libya has decided to seize for control to overthrow Colonel Qaddafi and become one more nation of prosperity. The freedom hoped for can be conquered only if the citizens beat the man of power, the president.
          When a country opposes it’s ruler, that shows how poorly he is doing his job as a protector. Justice was made and the leader had to pay the consequences even if he had to die trying. For instance, Nicholas II of Russia was persistent and would not give up his kingdom until he was abdicated. At first, he was protected in a train station, but the citizens wanted a reformed government, food supply, and a future. A month ago, Egypt was restrained from President
          Sometimes a president has nothing else to do, but use fist and guns to keep his country in his rule. Russia was a perfect display of a passive uprising, Libya began on the wrong foot and now is in deep trouble. With Russia’s flawless method of protest it made it had made it’s own resolution to become a Soviet Union, initiate the Russian Civil War and most importantly govern by the Bolsheviks. Russia had the best outcome, but recently Egypt has been freed and now the people are proud to be Egyptians. They march with pride and cheerfulness now all they have to do is draft their constitutional amendments and declare a president to be in charge. There has also been a plethora of different political groups, like the Islams, and for the first year in thirty years the citizens of Egypt will have the right to vote. In a report done by the Vice president, he said, “ Let god declare our steps,” and renounced his position. The military has arrested Anas al-Fiqqi , the country's former information minister, and Osama el-Sheikh, the chairman of state TV and radio for corruption. While in Egypt everyone is celebrating their independence, in Libya about an estimated 180,000 people have fled in the past 10 days seeking refuge in Tunisia while Qaddafi has sent armies of soldiers to kill huge amounts of rebels and protesters. All together, every revolution has a different tactic, but eventually will free themselves from exploitation.
          There are many distinctive and similar contradictions involving the Russian reform and the resent uprisings in Egypt and Libya. Even though lives are lost in every revolution known to men many more lives are saved from immorality. Just like Dr. Martin Luther King who fought for desegregation and Gandhi who believed in non - violence, these countries will alter the world continuously.

world war 1




Nationalism Is Taking Over The World!
All nations in the European continent have allied together and we the people are suffering. Germany allied with Austria and declared war with Russia. Then, two days later declared war on France. Of course, France’s Western Front is struggling and many soldiers are wounded, blind and dead. The trenches are flooded with mud, the brave soldiers are in horrible conditions and have old fashioned weaponry. The Germans are overpowering with their new battle strategy known as the Schlieffen Plan. First they will make a quick defeat in France and then Fight against Russia. In the Western Front the new weaponry such as the submarine was developed by the Germans and soon it will be the most dangerous under water weapon in the world. Russia does not stay behind, it is putting up a fight, but the Germans have killed more the 30,000 Russians. Every nation is trying to conquer and win, but it is still a mystery. The most violent World war is a difficult fight, but Germany seems to be unstoppable.

Sports SectionWorld War I will not stop Europe from conquering in sports also. FC Barcelona had a very tough run against Real Madrid, Spain. But even though Kaka from Real Madrid was able to make two easy goals, Messi from Barcelona took the win with three goals. The league is over and Barcelonan wins three- two. Sadly, Messi was recruited from Spain to fight in the war on Germany’s side. He will be recruited in August ten and everyone wishes him good luck and blessings.
