The middle east is a region that has proven to be unstable for a long time.From the war in libya due to the rise of ghaddafi to iraq and syria which have become a den for terrorists.On media both local and international images of death and strife are shown and this has caused a crusade worldwide.So what really can be blamed for the instability in the middle east.Could it be poor leadership in the government or a rise in terrorism.In the year 2001,the terrorist Osama Bin Laden with his affiliates crashed two planes into the world trade center and pentagon in America.Fear gripped the minds of people,how could this have happened in the big CIA.That led to the war in iraq by the then bush administration,the war is said by many to be the cause of terrorism in the middle east today.But is this true,how did the middle east become an abbatoir of war.
This simple factors lead to sentiments in the society Religion and Politics.For years talks of an apocalypse have overtaken the minds of people,factors like climate change and mortality rate has not made it less true.The world is gradually becoming a weird place and the acts of people is not making it better.Religion has proven to be a yardstick of war due to spiritual beliefs and political agendas.Radical islam paved way for instability in the middle east but the leaders of the world have refused to see it as a problem.Ideologies of Jihad and sharia in islam allows crude and dark things to happen in the east that ordinarily couldnt happen in a war.Looking at the syrian war the use of chemical weapons by assad on his people and the interference of russia show nothing but political scandals and agendas.Dictatorship is not limited to the middle east it can be found in north korea as well as africa.Looking closely into the world you would discover that mostly all places where islam is practiced are unstable.Simple acts of protests against a government becomes escalated into war becos of islamic religious conflicts.Islam they say is a religion of peace but that is very questionable.The war in syria and iraq have become a norm but the question is what will stop it.Extremism and its ideologies allow barbaric atitudes and during a civil war,women and children turn out to suffer the most.The extent to which jihadist have caused havoc in the west is alarming.There has been several bombings shootings and lone wolve attacks in America compared to other places in the west.Jihadists believe enlightenment or education is a wrong idea so they punish anybody who tends towards civilisation.Although America has suffered a great deal from terrorists it has also taken the lead against terrorism in the east.The Obama government is fighting to free iraq and syria from terrorism through training the syrian army providing aids ammunition and quality advise.
Sometimes i wonder if the leaders in the middle east like egypt iran and the uae care about what is happening in syria and iraq.Islamic radicals have penetrated almost everywhere in the world from belgium to paris and the united kingdom.Recently the supposed holy ground for muslims saudi arabia was attacked by terrorists.They form a caliphate everywhere they penetrate just to prove a book the koran right that allah would never bow.The continous struggle between Isrealis and Palestinians shows the nature of jihadists,they usually want to fight to prove a point.The use of knives guns local bombs and chemical weapons have been adopted by jihadists.Terrorism has become a global problem and the leaders of the world dont seem to have a solution.However i believe the solution to terrorism is not just to end wars but to kill the ideology of extremism.Civilization is good if its not why do terrorist use phones and social network to communicate.The thinking of islam to believe in holy war and sharia is the problem.Its arguable that islam cannot be erased from the minds of those who practice it but till the world leaders see extremism as a part of islam nothing wil change.The truth is that there is no line between mainstream and radical islam.Islam is islam and extremism is a menace to even islam,so i say change the ideology and destroy terrorism.
