http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2015/09/28/at-u-n-monday-obama-and-putin-grapple-over-the-future-international-order/

Summary of Article

This article is about Obama and Putin both critizing one another for involvement in conflicts that hace occurred like Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, and the Ukraine.  Obama is criticizing Putin for supporting the Syrian president and for supporting rebels in the Ukraine.  In addition, he also has criticized him for Annexing Crimea to be part of Russia.  On the other hand, Putin is critizing Obama for his involvement in the Middle East issues like supporting the rebels against President Assad and indirectly issues with Iran, Afghanistan, and Iraq.  

Opinion

President Obama and Putin are wrong for getting involved in Syria.  They should have let the rebels and the Syrian government duke it out themselves.  That is there problem and if they want to fight let them because it is an internal issue.  Yes there is a problem of refugees, but I guarantee that the war would have been finished if Russia did not supply the Syrian government and the US did not supply the rebels.  In addition, if refugees are causing an issue for those countries then they should be aided with monetary and supplies to help those refugees.  That should be the only involvement in the Syrian issue.  

All in all, I think it is time for countries to stop getting involved with the internal conflicts of other countries.  Russia should have stayed out of the conflict of Ukraine and Syria.  US should have stayed out of the conflict of Syria as well.  On the other hand, we know that the only reasons why countries get involved is because they have interests with those countries.  Putin supports Assad because they share intelligence with one another and they have economical agreements. Russia of course would not want rebels to win because then he will lose an alliance.  US supports the rebels because this will possibly build another alliance either through economical and/or intelligence support.  

It is impossible for anyone to completely stay out of the problems of other countries, but we should try harder.  In addition, if they are going to get involved then it should not be with weapon supplying.  That just creates more issues like death, war, tyranny, and poverty.

Thoughts on 14 Year-Old Arrested For a Clock Mistaken to be a Bomb

I hope all is going well with everyone today.  I haven't been blogging due to life, which we all have to deal with.  However, a news article has got me a little rattled. The linked article is about a teenager who was arrested for a clock that authorities thought was a bomb.  I honestly do think this teenager was arrested based on the fact that he is Muslim.  Fear leads to many innocent people getting arrested or investigated because people think that the color or religion you follow will lead to a terrorist attack.  

In addition, Governor Bobby Jindal contradicts himself in this article because he thinks that no 14 year-old should not be arrested, but he is happy the police are doing their job.  The police are not doing a good job because they did not bother to inspect the clock before arresting him. It is absolutely terrible that they were so quick to rush to judgment because he is Muslim and he is bringing in a clock that they thought could carry a bomb.

Then Governor Jindal goes on to make himself look like a bigger fool by criticizing the Muslim community that they are not doing a better job to denounce violence.  I bet you if researchers did a study on the Muslim community and compared it to another community about their size they would find they commit less crimes.  No one should blame the Muslim community in America for events that are happening across the world unless you can prove that they are funding them.  In addition, funding is rare because the federal government will eventually capture those who do it through extensive investigation.  The risk of being caught is high therefore most will not attempt it.

Lastly, he turns it into a Christian issue by stating they are facing discrimination.  Everyone faces discrimination and it depends on how you want to handle it.  The clerk deserves to be arrested for not issuing out marriage licenses to gay couples.  It is her job and she should not let her personal beliefs get in the way of her job and if she has got a problem she should have quit.
