Starting in the late nineteenth century and moving on to the twentieth century‚ the Middle East has been mostly an Arabic country. Research shows that Between 1800 and 1914‚ the Muslim population had a yearly average increase in the order of magnitude of roughly 6-7 per thousand. This can be compared to the very crude estimate of about 4 per thousand for the "less developed countries" of the world (in Asia‚ Africa‚ and Latin America) between 1800 and 1910.

However‚ after much “educating of myself” on the conflict‚ I definitely have personal views on the course of action as well as the problems behind the situation. It is most certainly my opinion that the U.S. should simply stay completely and fully out of any course of action
