The Nile River - The Politics of Water
At over 5,000 miles, the Nile is the longest river system in the world, flowing from central Africa north to the Mediterranean Sea. It is the lifeblood of one of the key nations of the Middle East – Egypt. There are ten countries that can claim a part of the Nile basin, but the Nile is Egypt’s lifeblood. Although it has attempted to secure the unimpeded flow of the Nile’s waters through the country by treaty, Cairo has made it known that it will use military force if necessary to ensure access to the waters.

Preventing Genocide
Genocide has been repeated throughout history, but it was only in the 20th Century that people became horrified at the results - particularly because of the mechanism by which an entire people could be eliminated from the planet with cold efficiency. Sadly, few want to take the steps to prevent genocide even as it occurs around the world today.
