add video playlist Amid a growing tide of violence, some residents say that Iraqis are again segregating themselves along sectarian lines, prompted by a political crisis pulling at the explosive Sunni-Shiite divide. The enshrined sectarianism has been aggravated by Maliki's increasingly authoritarian policies. Baghdad and the rest of Iraq are already highly segregated places. Running from bombs, death squads and their own neighbors at the height of violence in 2006 and 2007, Sunnis and Shiites fled neighborhoods that were once mixed. That violence and the resulting migrations slowed in 2008, but tensions are again swirling as a power struggle worsens between Shiite Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and Sunni politicians who have been largely sidelined since the overthrow of Saddam Hussein.

Un­easy Truce: Ukraine mourns riot vic­tims as govt agrees to cease­fire

In which John Green teaches you about Imperialism. In the late 19th century, the great powers of Europe were running around the world obtaining colonial possessions, especially in Africa and Asia. The United States, which as a young country was especially suceptible to peer pressure, followed along and snapped up some colonies of its own. The US saw that Spain\'s hold on its empire was weak, and like some kind of expansionist predator, it jumped into the Cuban War for Independence and turned it into the Spanish-Cuban-Phillipino-American War, which usually just gets called the Spanish-American War. John will tell you how America turned this war into colonial possessions like Puerto Rico, The Philippines, and almost even got to keep Cuba. The US was busy in the Pacific as well, wresting control of Hawaii from the Hawaiians. All this and more in a globe-trotting, oppressing episode of Crash Course US History.

Many experts believe that it is almost inevitable that terrorists will soon have the ability to detonate a nuclear weapon in the heart of a major American city. How can we stop them? What are the specific threats that we face and how should we respond to them? Do we face a greater danger from nuclear weapons that may have been stolen from the former Soviet Union or from the clandestine efforts of rogue nuclear scientists? And if the threat has increased since 9/11, why hasn\'t the United States done more to contain it? Peter Robinson speaks with Graham Allison and Scott Sagan.

Iraq's Deadly Sectarian Divide: Violence furthers Sunni-Shia segregation :: Lucy Kafanov reports
  • Order:
  • Duration: 3:50
  • Updated: 14 Jun 2013
Amid a growing tide of violence, some residents say that Iraqis are again segregating themselves along sectarian lines, prompted by a political crisis pulling at the explosive Sunni-Shiite divide. The enshrined sectarianism has been aggravated by Maliki's increasingly authoritarian policies. Baghdad and the rest of Iraq are already highly segregated places. Running from bombs, death squads and their own neighbors at the height of violence in 2006 and 2007, Sunnis and Shiites fled neighborhoods that were once mixed. That violence and the resulting migrations slowed in 2008, but tensions are again swirling as a power struggle worsens between Shiite Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and Sunni politicians who have been largely sidelined since the overthrow of Saddam Hussein.

In which John Green teaches you about Imperialism. In the late 19th century, the great powers of Europe were running around the world obtaining colonial possessions, especially in Africa and Asia. The United States, which as a young country was especially suceptible to peer pressure, followed along and snapped up some colonies of its own. The US saw that Spain's hold on its empire was weak, and like some kind of expansionist predator, it jumped into the Cuban War for Independence and turned it into the Spanish-Cuban-Phillipino-American War, which usually just gets called the Spanish-American War. John will tell you how America turned this war into colonial possessions like Puerto Rico, The Philippines, and almost even got to keep Cuba. The US was busy in the Pacific as well, wresting control of Hawaii from the Hawaiians. All this and more in a globe-trotting, oppressing episode of Crash Course US History.

NetworkNewsToday: 23 December 2009 - UNTV: United Nations - With one vote against and one abstention, the Security Council approves sanctions against Eritrea for their role in the Somalia conflict. Djiboutian Ambassador Roble Olhaye accuses Eritrea of border violations and warns the Council about "the option of war." With one vote against and one abstention the Security Council approved today (23 December) a resolution leveling sanctions against Eritrea for their role in the Somali conflict. The Ugandan-drafted resolution alleges that Eritrea has aided Islamist insurgents in Somalia and bans the sale of weapons to and from Eritrea and imposes asset freezes and travel restrictions on the Horn of Africa states political and military leaders. Ugandan Ambassador Ruhakana Rugunda told the Council that the measures imposed by todays resolution are targeted and corrective, and expressed hope that Eritrea will take the necessary action to enable the Council to revert the measures in the near future. Djiboutian Ambassador Roble Olhaye addressed the Council and pointed a series of accusations at the government of Eritrea. Quoting Djiboutian President Ismail Omar Guelleh, he warned the Council that unless it took action against the unwarranted provocation and infringement on our territorial integrity, it would leave Djibouti only one option; the option of war. Somali Ambassador Elmi Ahmed Duale, striking a conciliatory note, said that despite all the hostile and negative activities of Eritrea against the Somali government, it was prepared to the enter into serious dialogue with Eritrea to solve any outstanding matters and issues. He cautioned that Eritreas past behaviour casts doubt that it will change its hostilities towards Somalia. Outside the Council, Eritrean Ambassador Araya Desta told reporters that the sanctions imposed on Eritrea are based on fabricated lies concocted by the Ethiopian regime and the US administration. He claimed that Eritreans havent done anything (wrong) and added that the sanctions are irrelevant and based on no concrete evidence. Since Eritrea gained independence in 1993, the country has been involved in two serious conflicts over territory with its neighbors, Ethiopia and Djibouti, and has been accused of supporting Somali rebels in their fight against their government. .......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

And if the threat has increased since 9/11, why hasn't the United States done more to contain it? Peter Robinson speaks with Graham Allison and Scott Sagan.
