What Is Professional Democracy Challenges?

Thank you for contacting me! I am extremely familiar with DATE and IPB in relation to DCGS-A. While stationed at Fort Bliss, I participated in the Army Warfighter Assessment -- a 30 day, multi-national training event that utilized the DATE 2.0 scenario. During this exercise, we exclusively used DCGS-A to log, assess, and deliver actionable intelligence to higher and lower echelons. I led a team in completing Brigade-level mission analysis products (PMESII-PT & ASCOPE factors, key people, enemy composition, enemy capabilities, and situation templates). I became familiar with the tactics, techniques, and procedures described and, for example, regularly overlayed doctrinal templates on 2D maps to contribute to situation templates. In creating MCOOs, I drew from motivations and assessments made from the DATE manual, and noted key terrain and possible areas of particular conflict. By

World War I (WWI), which was predominantly called the World War or the Great War from its occurrence until 1939, and the First World War or World War I thereafter, was a major war centered in Europe that began on 28 July 1914 and lasted until 11 November 1918. It involved all the world's great powers, which were assembled in two opposing alliances: the Allies (centered on the Triple Entente of the United Kingdom, France and Russia) and the Central Powers (originally centered on the Triple Alliance of Germany, Austria-Hungary and Italy). These alliances both reorganized (Italy fought for the Allies), and expanded as more nations entered the war. Ultimately more than 70 million military personnel, including 60 million Europeans, were

Imagine this. You’re rapidly fleeing your home country, sprinting as your life depended on it, which it did. The memories of the terrible war, still pounding in your head. The piercing roar of the gunshots. The gruesome red blood, glistening in the sunlight. You need to go, go to a free country, a land where everything is safe and sound, and not demolished like your home. You need to go, you need to leave Syria.

Throughout history, our world has constantly been bruised and battered by civil turmoil. Today, the civil war in Syria decimates the country; the Israeli and Palestinian conflict rages on; tens of thousands of people have been killed in South Sudan's ongoing civil war. It is not always easy to isolate what exactly ignites the flames of war, but, whenever possible, finding a workable, calm and satisfying solution to a potential uprising is preferable.

Attention getter- Have you ever been forced to leave your hometown without committing any crimes or doing something wrong? Imagine yourself waking up one day, seeing that you are in the middle of the war with people running around and screaming for their lives. Such incident may seem very unlikely to happen to you however, the people of Syria have been experiencing it for almost everyday of their lives. .

Over the past four years, the situation within the Syria has become more and more dangerous. As many as 6.7 million people, have been displaced from their homes within the country alone. Another 4 million have fled the country entirely, in order to get away from the incessant fighting. An estimated 200,000 people have been killed over the course of the war, but the country is so

In the article “Syria is emptying”, Liz Sly, shows you just how bad things are getting in Syria. Syrians are fleeing their nation at a rapid pace. While trying to get out of Syria they have endured cruel conditions before they even have a chance to get out. Syrians are trying to avoid the devastation spreading across their country. Causing one of the largest migrations in Syrian history.

The utterly diminished and persistently conflicted regime of Bashar Al-Assad has led to several forces, including numerous rebel groups, Kurdish forces, and even ISIL to occupy the war-torn country of Syria in a seemingly never-ending ruination. Most importantly however, it has also led to millions of Syrians becoming dislodged between the remnant regions with the deaths of roughly half a million citizens, according to the Syrian Centre for Policy Research, from a civil war that originated due to a series of protests and differentiating ideologies. The situation has lead for surviving Syrians, now properly known as refugees, to seek asylum in neighboring countries in Europe, but even including some countries as far as in the Western Hemisphere, particularly the United States.

The 1986 film The Mission depicts the relation of the Jesuits as a type of enlightening force for the Guarani people, that is able to organized theses people in way that was not before possible. The representation of the priest as these great liberators of knowledge by the movie is flattery, the natives where indeed capable of organizing themselves as a society that the films choses to ignore. The Guarani where not the pure molds that the movie presents, they contained there own original and optioned ideas on how society works after contact with the Jesuits and in the missions, a notable example of their ideas can be seen in religion. The natives are shown throughout the film of having weak constitution to their traditional spirituality, and this was not the cause in history. My argument is, the Guarini where not the passive molds for Christianity presented in the film, but where actually relatively organized in them believes of spirituality and held strong options on the subject. Supporting the argument against the films take will include: Ruiz de Montoya’s The Spiritual Conquest, a primary source form the prospective of a Jesuit priest during the time of The Mission; James Schofield Seager’s The Mission and Historical Missions: Film and the Writing of History, focuses on the historical issues riddled within the film; and lecture notes form Dr. Austin, discussing the actuality of what occurred in during the time period of The Mission.

Due to the recent crises caused by the conflict in Syria, more than four million refugees have fled that region of the

This act forced thousands of people to leave their homes for safer places within their country if they did not want to follow the factions rules. Over time, the factions grew more and more powerful causing allies of these countries to send reinforcements and help defeat these rebel groups. The increased military presence forced more people to leave, some left for other countries, hoping to one day return. The amount of people displaced from the war just in Syria is “11 million people within and beyond the country’s borders”(Zong). Approximately 5 million of these refugees left the country for safe countries around the world. If each country in Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas each took an equal amount of people the refugee crisis wouldn't be as big of an issue as it currently is. Currently, some countries are taking in far more than others, while some countries are taking in next to none. The majority of Syrian refugees have taken asylum in other middle eastern countries, with Turkey, Lebanon, and Jordan holding the vast majority, with each having over 1.2 million. In Europe, Germany and Sweden have taken in 64 percent of all asylum seekers who have ventured to Europe, while

We all know what is happening in Syria over the past four years from violence to disorder, crimes, and inhumane crimes. Most of the innocent families had fled to neighboring Arabian countries, but when the Arabian countries closed their gates for any more fleeing families they began to flee to European countries. Some of the European counties that Syrian families flee to are Switzerland, Germany, and Italy. These countries provide some excellent services to the fleeing families such as providing them a home to live in, and giving them a weekly wage of $100, and after 4 years of living in the country they will get the nationality.

A current issue on the minds and agendas of the international community is the Syrian Refugee Crisis. The situation has only escalated since its start in 2011, and as the number of displaced Syrians reaches over 9 million, countries around the world, not just the ones in the Middle East, are increasing efforts to offer asylum and aid for these people. The Syrian Refugee Crisis began with peaceful anti-government protests in March of 2011, but after the violent response of the government, rebels, army defectors, and many civilians formed the Free Syrian Army by July of the same year (Mercy Corps, Sept 2nd, 2015). The presence of ISIS within Syria and the differing views of religious groups (namely Sunni and Shiite) in the country only add to the chaos of destruction of the country and the Syrian people’s lives and homes. With the constant state of war within the country, basic necessities like food, water, and shelter have become scarce and Syrian people are looking to find new homes of stability and safety. The large majority of Syrians have fled to the neighboring countries of Jordan, Lebanon, Iraq, and Turkey. However the burden of harboring these refugees has put huge stress on the countries as the sheer number of people entering the country becomes too much to handle. Today one in five people living in Lebanon is a Syrian refugee (Mercy Corps, Sept 2nd, 2015). With the neighboring countries already beyond capacity, Syrians are looking for shelter in places outside this

Since 2011, Syria has been engaged in a Civil War with protestors against the government and members of the extremist group ISIS, and approximately 7.6 million people have been displaced from their homes (usnews.com 2015). As the conflict destroys more homes and livelihoods each year, an increasing number of civilians have been forced to leave Syria and try to find safety elsewhere. Already a contentious issue, the Syrian refugee crisis has awakened tensions, both economic and social as debate erupts over what to do with the refugees.In response to the crisis, while some countries like Germany have pledged to help the refugees, (New Statesman 2015 1) only 2,340 have been admitted. Clearly, more needs to be done in order to help the refugees. Although there are economic and population concerns to be considered, the humanitarian conflict that faces the refugees and solutions already available are reason enough for Europe to increase the numbers of Syrian refugees allowed in.

In addition, illegal immigrants are increasing as a result of war in other countries. According to CNN News in Syria, an anti-regime uprising that started in March 2011 has spiraled into civil war. More than 250,000 Syrians have lost their lives in four-and-a-half years of armed conflict. More than 11 million others have been forced from their homes as forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad and those opposed to his rule battle each other. People are fighting with neighbors all over the world. Every moment the fear of death is a present reality. No one can lead a normal life. They do not have enough food to survive. Thousands of children have seen parents killed or die at an early age themselves. These conflicts affect many cultures. Some people have decided to escape at any cost. Faez, a Syrian refugee, decided to flee Syria after he was detained and accused of being a terrorist. An
