Is there going to be War World III?

According to Cambridge Dictionary, World War is a war in which large forces from many countries fight. World war occurred twice during life human circle, which World War One turned out from 1914 to 1918 and World War Two happened from 1939 to 1945. The first of World War was the battle of Britain, France, Russia, the US, and Italy versus Germany, Austria-Hungary, Turkey, and Bulgaria. Besides, the second of World War occurred when Britain, the Soviet Union, the US, and France fought Germany, Italy, and Japan.

Nowadays, there is new opinion that becomes hot news in this world, World War Three (WW III). It is predicted will happen from 2015 until 2023. The opinion still becoming debate, which most of persons sure that it is going to happen and the others sure that it is only an issue. However, there are many signs that support the WW III is going to be.

The first is a Global Recession, a period of global economic go down. World War I and World War II were very different from each other, but they had a similarity. Prior to each war, economic recessions hit several of the countries involved. World War II brought most of the world’s economies back from the Great Depression, and World War I helped the US recover from a two years recession that had already slowed trade by 20 percent. If both of China and the US blow over the South China Sea, the US could destroy the debt and pump the extra revenue into military spending, the extract monetary flow that occurred in World War II, only this time the weapons are larger.

The second evidence is when North Korea is a Wild Card. The nation is potentially dangerous, but only in a short-range type of danger, similar when person can skip away from a person who attacks him in order to steal their money with a knife. As people know, North Korea is preparing a nuclear arsenal. It is unlikely that the country will lead with a nuclear attack, but if there is enough chaos around them, it will possible that the nation try to slip one into the mix.

The last sign come from Iran, it is itching to war. In January 2014, the nation dispatched a fleet of ships toward US national waters. The Senate has decided that unless military action is taken, Iran’s nuclear development will continue unchecked. Then on February 12, 2014, Iran’s military chief answered that claim by declaring the country’s willingness to go toe-to-toe with American forces, on land or at sea.

In my opinion, although there are many marks that support to World War III, it probably would not occur. The global recession would not happen and the guns will not be larger. Besides, in most importantly, although Iran sounds like a crisis in the making, but it is not as bad as it seems. The big players have passed their political adolescence. But they will be involved in trying to educate and contain more backward and barbaric societies who threaten to destabilize the world.

Because of patient, Messi be able to result game for long periods. It happened when every opponent has come with a plan to stop him by closing down his space and tackling him as soon as he touches the ball. Patiently awaiting a moment when defenders take their focus off him just a split second that is when he strikes. The last of all is intelligence, ability to read the game, mapping out paths to the opponent’s goal on his mind before the opponent does. That is the important thing to understand why he is a valuable scorer. The Understanding by instinct become the one great skill of him where a gap will open up for a quick pass or shot, gives him an advantage over.

The wrap of all, Lionel Messi belong to the one of the greatest player who is laudable to get FIFA World Cup 2014 Golden Ball. This situation does not matter how much support that he gets, but it matter how special he is.

Shanna Bukhari, UK’s Miss Universe, Met five Women are Converting to Islam to find what brings women to faith?

Islam, the truth religion, diffuses widely in this world such West World. There are many evidence that expound the truly of Islam. Islam gives the rightness direction for every one who needs directive in their life. In other word, the going up of British women are converting to Islam, Shanna Bukhari, a 26-year-old from Manchester, would like to find out the reasons of it.

In the beginning, Bukhari visited Claire, since becoming a Muslim her name is known as Sofia, was a lapsed Christian. She told to Shanna that she can be stylish and modest although she wears hijab. Sofia also did not mind that dressing more conservatively as she doesn’t feel she needs to let everything hang out. She still feels enjoy whenever She be the only Muslim in her village. In her family, her mother supports her fairly and her father always defends his daughter from her friends, may not understand why she has converted and view her as a traitor, down the pub.

In the second time, Shanna traveled to Glasgow to meet Alana, 20-year-old media student, converted to Islam two years before Shanna met her. Before converting to Islam, Alana met Abdullah, now is her fiancé, introduced her about Islam. Alana is currently taking a weekly Islamic Studies course and also hopes to learn Arabic so she can understand what Abdul’s family are speaking about. Although Alana appeared to be very happy it seemed that she has no lost contact with her friends and she felt she can socialize with them as they are all heavy drinkers. The only change was she did not go clubbing with them. The meeting of Alana and Shanna only turned up frosty for five minutes, however now they are being good mates.

The third woman was Lisa, a Pakistan girl, converted to Islam for her husband since two year ago. She has three daughters who have different habit about hijab, one of them wears hijab and the others do not. When Lisa was still a wild child and still had tattoos, however her experience to conversion began when she was 14, when she met her future husband. Her husband allows him to be married more than one wife, thus Lisa became the second wife. Lisa appears to hate her co-wife and has laid down firm ground rules to her husband that he’s not allowed to have sex with her but at the same time it appears as if all of her in-laws hate her. Her sister, Kimberly, was angry with Lisa because Lisa was like single parent however she has husband. Indeed Shanna has similar views saying that the whole idea makes her sick and it appeared to me as if Lisa had made the ultimate sacrifice just to be with the man that she loved.

Inaya, poor girl be even harder for converts who aren’t married as women, converts into Islam don’t have the same opportunities to meet a husband as those born into the faith. Inaya who is having trouble finding a man due to the fact that she is a convert to the religion and feels that there are a few channels open to women like her. Inaya converted to Islam several years ago when she was going through a difficult time and started learning about the faith through her Muslim friends. Now at 28 she’s ready to get married however she finds it difficult to meet a partner when most of the Muslim weddings are arranged by families who are close to one another. Even when taking part in Islamic speed dating she has been insulted by men who claim that she is too old or who fear that she may revert to her old western ways. Shanna personally found story of Inaya fairly depressing as it appears as if her new faith has stopped her finding a man. This makes her tough that it would not happening if she had not converted to the faith, nevertheless she felt happy to know that she had found love after this documentary was filmed.

The rest of the story told about Aisha, a model same as Shanna, stopped being model after converting to Islam. She is more relaxed in her religious but always considers what she is wearing on the catwalk. From the story, Shanna also re-explores her own faith and was going to be Muslim. She went to Alana once again who told that she should not be a Model. Then, after receiving two different kind of advice, in the last Shana decided she would begin to go to mosque and takes a pray there.
