Radical Islam: Article Analysis

Before commencing a discussion on analyzing the article “What makes sociology a different discipline” from the other sciences we should have the know-how about sociology. In the words of modern thinkers of sociology namely Karl Marx, Max Weber and Emile Durkheim “Social fact should be the subject matter for the study of social life and can provide explanations for human thinking and behavior (p19)”. What we infer from the above definition is that man is born as a social animal. Man cannot live alone. He prefers to live in groups and his behavior that is actions and deeds are well governed and regulated by certain rules and laws of conduct that comprises of moral ethics and civic standards. His standard of living is said to be within the

After reviewing the article titles given for this first assignment, I believe they indicate that Sociology, generally speaking, is not only a study of diversity or commonality in traits among people; it is also a science about factors in a person’s life and how these factors culminate responses. Interestingly enough, its topics of concern seem to be directly determined by current and common events of the world. Through the invention and expansion of new ideas, popular trends and fashions through time, Sociology adapts to responsibly to service the very subjects of interest it studies; for, even the slightest change of a person’s daily experience can have an insurmountable impact on attitude, personal growth, family

In the Times’ story, the newspaper calls the network’s coverage of an alleged rape case in Maryland, in which an undocumented immigrant is a suspect, “not unlike a Trump campaign speech.” Fox catered to its audience by throwing its own colleagues under the bus— “where’s the mainstream media’s outrage? Hmm, we couldn’t find it,” said “Fox and Friends” co-host Steve Doocy according to the Times.

The Nation of Islam is one of the most recognizable symbols of an organized African American voice in the United States. Starting from a few followers in the Great Depression, this movement and religion eventually grew to include thousands. It has also been the starting point for several famous African American individuals, such as Muhammad Ali and Malcom X. The Nation of Islam has been the source of much controversy and speculation from outside members. The group is no stranger to accusations regarding its beliefs and practices. It can be seen be the history of the Nation of Islam that it gained publicity and popularity due to its racial, socioeconomic, and political ideals, not by its interpretation of and relation to the orthodox Islam.

The Nation of Islam is a polytheism religion. It’s a messianic-nationalist; this is when one of the men acts as God, while the others do the work of getting the future together for the nation known as minsters. The Nation of Islam preaches racial supremacy and holy war against white people as a religious belief. They promote segregation and separation. They believe in the bible, but believe it has been tamper with. The nation believes that Allah (God) appeared in the person of Master W. Fard Muhammad July 1930’s. They follow the Holy Qur’an and believe in the scriptures of all the prophet of God. Their women should be respected and protected as the women of other nationalities are. They have a big belief that Muslim should not participate in

These days, when a news channel makes a report on a terroristic attack or issue, the anchors are most likely talking about ISIS. If a poll was given across the U.S asking what people thought of when they thought of modern terrorism, the majority would say ISIS. If that same poll was given before the rise of ISIS, however, the obvious answer would be Al Qaeda. Throughout the 2000’s, Al Qaeda and terrorism were synonymous terms. One could not have one without the other. So, the question must arise: What happened to Al Qaeda? This question is easier asked than answered. Al Qaeda rose to power through the late twentieth and early twenty-first century very effectively and rapidly, but they lost that power just as quickly by divisions in violent Islamic radicalism.

The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, known as ISIS, has become a major threat as an organized militaristic terrorist organization. ISIS was not even a threat as much as 10 years ago, but since then this organization has formed and become an increasingly violent group, making public demonstrations of the beheadings of innocent people, baiting western nations. By taking trained terrorist and organizing them, ISIS has been able to form a military, thus making a real militaristic threat; this has allowed ISIS create it’s own state and maintain it’s borders. The historically recent development of Islamic State of Iraq and Syria has taken a step further than infamous terrorist groups such as it’s former partner al Qaeda and become

Many of my relatives are still living in Baghdad and thankfully ISIS has not been able to take control of it yet. My parents and I are in touch with them on a regular basis to make sure that they are all right. We advised them to leave the country, but they refused because they don’t want to leave their homeland. About a year ago, during the early development of ISIS, a close family friend was traveling from Iraq to Syria. While he was driving he was stopped by ISIS insurgents. They checked his driver’s license and easily recognized that he was a Shia, a minority sect in Islam, by looking at his name. Without hesitation they killed him for having a belief that was different than theirs. ISIS has also killed thousand Christians, Shiites and

ISIS has gone through a evolution of names which tell a story of botht the origind of the orginization and its aspirations.One of the first names that the group was acknowledged as and still to this day is widely known as is ISIS. This stands for “Islamic State in Iraq and Syria”. However the term ISIL has also been used which means “Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant”. These two names hold the same meaning they are different only because there is no direct translation for the word “al-sham” which the group originally used in their name. These two names both represent the origins of the group which began as a Iraqi branch of Al Qaeda which then advanced into Syria. “It has since been disavowed by al-Qaeda,

Ever since September 11, Islam have become the face of terror and this has brought a lot of attention and victimization towards average Muslims. Many people are just looking for a reason to bash Islam, so they pick on controversial topics that Muslims differ from. One controversial topic is the hijab and it what it symbolizes, to many non-Muslims conservatives. The hijab and/or burqa is a veil that covers the head and body and is a form of modest attire worn by Muslim women. This form of attire has been linked oppression, voiceless, or religiously conservative by the mass media. Certain media outlets like fox news and other conservative outlets have been the spearhead of these stereotypical views and insults. These brave women choose to use

Sociology is the study of diverse subjects in a society which includes: religion, race culture, and social classes. It also involves the study of the behavior of people and all the changes that happen in society. In each social setting, there are shared beliefs which also change through time. Sociology informs us of the making of policies which tend to improve the lives of people in a setting. It provides distinct perspectives to generate new ideas and modify the old ones. The sociological research uses different techniques to provide evidence of any aspect of social life. Qualitative data such as ethnography and archival works as well as quantitative data like statistical modeling of

“Are you afraid of Muslims? Do you often hear the words “Allahu Akbar?” White nationalists all over the country are asking their fellow citizens these crucial questions. Local Americans and supporters of the Anti-Islam movement are angered with the recent move-in of a Muslim family in their neighborhood. Head organizer of the Anti-Islam movement claims that “Muslims are everywhere and we Americans have had enough of them!”

The Somali National Army has got an important part to play in neutralizing the Al-Shabaab, it is also a crucial component of AMISOM’s exit strategy and of ensuring that peace in Somalia is sustained over a longer period of time. But the leaders of the new Somali Armed forces, face challenges of tribal differences, lack of focused political ideology, Islamic extremism and technical challenges. In terms of equipment, the Somali National Army (SNA) is particularly lacking in acquiring basic force multiplier equipment such as motorized infantry vehicles, armored troop carriers, anti-personnel carriers, and communications technologies, most notably radios. With the recent lifting of the arms prohibition, the Somali National Army has of recently

However this description of sociology is only partially correct. To say that sociology is about people and humanity is not enough to distinguish it from the other subjects in the human sciences. For it is equally the case that Psychology, Social Policy, Economics and Social History, amongst
