essay Politics; kan iem. de Engelse vertalen controleren?
 

Hi! :D

Ik moet vrijdag een essay inleveren in het Engels over de politiek.
Ik heb al een deel geschreven. (2e helft moet ik nog doen).
Ben niet erg goed in Engels, dus zou iemand voor mij even willen kijken of er fouten in zitten (ongetwijfeld) en die mij even laten weten.

Alvast onwijs bedankt! (y)

Iraq

Introduction

After the attacks at 11 September 2001 the American President Bush announced a struggle against the terrorism. World leaders were allowed to choose: you are for us or you are against us. The Taliban was the first opponent who dealt with Bush.
Iraq seems to be the next country that will be handled.
The subject is very important because of the fact that if there will break out a war, this will be noticeable for the whole world.
Maybe this seems unthinkable, but because Iraq is one of the largest oil lands, the oil prices will rise and there will be a scarcity of oil, but I will write about this later.
The world will notice the war too seeing that both Iraq as America have biological weapons and herewith this can create a hudge damage on a large-scale. This is also one of the reasons of America and Iraq to attack. They want safety for the world.

The 4 points of view/ angles :confused:

Social-Economic angle
In the field of economy a war will have large consequences. Because Iraq is a big supplier of oil the oil will be scarce/rare and because of that the oil prices will shoot up.
This will be a big shock for companies who need oils as a raw material, they probably will produce less and that will be noticeable in other branches of the industry, but also on other fields. The car users have to pay enormous prices for the petrol. Many people probably cannot pay this and they will be restricted in their transport.
For some authorities a war will be just convenient, for example an arms factory.
They will have to produce much more weapons than usually. Probably they cannot handle this with their current staff, so their will come free more jobs.
Of course this is good for the unemployment.

Social-Cultural angle
After the attack on the WTC, in America and also outside, the hatred against people from the Middle East become worse. For people with an Islamic religion it becomes, especially in the Western culture, harder than before. Also in the Netherlands this was good noticeable (and still). The indigenous population feels threaten quickly when a couple of allochthonous form a group. The other way round allochthonous inhabitants often feel already discriminated on the colour of their skin (strict supervision on identification duty for allochthonous at airports, public buildings, discotheques).
The differences between Muslims and other cultures will be strongly worded more and more and lead more often to conflicts and aggression between people of different cultures; a development which is alarmed and noticeable over the whole world.
When their breaks out a war between Saddam Hussein and President Bush this hate will only be worse and than a Third world-war is not excluded.

This will be a big shock for companies who need oils as a raw material, they probably will produce less and that will be noticeable in other branches of the industry.

Since the attacks on September 11th of 2001 the American president Bush announced a struggle against terrorism. World leaders had to choose which side they supported: the 'terrorists' or Bush. . The Taliban was the first opponent Bush dealt with.

Iraq seems to be the next country that will be attacked.
This issue is very important, because when Bush starts a war, it could affect the whole world

Maybe this seems overreacted , but Iraq is one of the most important oil-producing countries. The oil prices could rise and there'll be a scarcity (?) in het woordenboek opgezocht ofzo? of oil, but I will explain this later.

As I said, the world will definetely notice the war, mainly because both Iraq and the USA have biological weapons and these weapons could create lots of damage. This is also one of the reasons for the USA to attack Iraq, they say they want safety for the entire world.

The 4 different points of view

Social-Economic view
In the economic field a war will have huge consequences. Because Iraq is a big supplier of oil, the oil will become rare and because of that the oil prices will rise .

This will be a big shock for companies who need oil as a raw material, they will probably produce less products and that will be noticeable in other parts of the industry too. It will also have huge effects on other branches (is dit Engels?).

Car-owners will have to pay enormous prices for the petrol. Many people will not be able to pay the higher prices and they will be restricted in their transport.
For some companies though, a war will be convenient, for example for an arms factory. The factory might has to produce much more weapons than they usually do.
They probably cannot handle this with their current staff, so the war might create more jobs
Obviously this is good for the unemployment.

Social-Cultural view

Since the attack on the WTC, in and outside the US(A), the hatred against people from the Middle East has become worse. For people with an Islamic religion it becomes, especially in the Western culture, more tough than before to live their normal lives . This was also noticeable in the Netherlands (and it still is ). The indigenous population feels quickly threatened when allochthonous (is dit engels?) form atight group.

Another reason for the allochthonous inhabitants to feel discriminated by the colour of their skin is strict supervision on identification duty for allochthonous at airports, public buildings, discotheques.

The differences between muslims zonder hoofdletter volgens mij and other cultures will become worse and they will eventually lead to more conflicts and more aggression between people of different cultures; an alarming development that will be noticeable in the entire world.
When a war errupts between Iraq and the USA this hatred will become worse and World War III ] might not be out of the question .


Dit is hoe ik het zou doen, dat wil niet zeggen dat het op jouw manier niet goed was.. maar lees de 'verbeteringen' eens door en kijk of je het er mee eens bent. Zoek alsjeblieft een paar woorden op in je woordenboek (allochtonen, schaarste) en zorg dat je steeds dezelfde termen gebruikt voor de landen. De VS heten officieel USA en niet America, een president is geen naam en hoeft dus niet met hoofdletter en moslims zijn een bevolkingsgroep; geen naam dus ook zonder hoofdletter.
Correct me if I'm wrong en succes ermee! (Y)

Echt onwijs bedankt voor jullie hulp. Echt (y) !

Groetjes !

Graag gedaan :)

Politic-Juridical view
According to the US president, George W. Bush, Saddam Hussein, the Iraqis president, is a dictator.
In Bush's opinion the parliament of Iraq has no real influence.
It does not matter if the cabinet agrees with the resolution or not, because finally it is Saddam who decides; an action that Washington calls ‘political theater’.
America stated that if Saddam doesn't agree with the resolution this will have serious consequences.
Meanwhile America and Great-Britain launched 200.000 soldiers for an attack on Iraq.

Comparable view
The Iraqis government is characterized by a dictatorial structure with a strong military regime. The opinion of the people does not count. For example, the Iraqis population does no longer tolerate the insert of biological/chemical weapons, which undoubtedly causes a lot of victims, not only on the enemies' side. But this does not have any influence on the policy of the government, it leads only to oppression of the population.
Iraq has a parliament, but the problem for the people is that during the elections there is only one party eligible. As they don't have the option to choose, it is not a real democracy.
Also the members of the parliament have little influence on the policy of Iraq. There are suspicions that Saddam put pressure on the members and threatened them so that they only proclaim his points of view.
Compared to the Iragis government, the Dutch governement -which is characterized by democracy and free expression of opinion for everyone - the votes of the people are important enough to have influence on political decisions.
For decisions as launching weapons a wide area (draagvlak) within own country will be required. (deze zin snap ik niet helemaal in deze context- misschien kun je die weglaten...)
All taken decisions will be checked before they are put into action, first by the Second Chamber and after that by the First Chamber. In this way the interests of the population will be pursued in the best way.

My opinion:
· Is it justifiable that the USA, as the only remaining world-power, is trying to police the world?
· Do you think it is justifiable that the Dutch government supports the USA without a referendum thus risking having to participate in the war?

1. I think that the USA is allowed to take actions against terroristic organisations only with the support of the UN, because the safety of more countries than that of the USA is involved. Violent actions should only be taken with unanimous support of the other countries in the world, only then a war should be started.
2. I think the government is not allowed to make decisions that could endanger the safety of the Dutch citizens, because there was no threat of war during the elections. According to me, we should have a national advisory referendum when the government is on the verge of making an important decision. The judgement of the referendum is also something that should be taken into account.

Ik wil nog even een verandering aanbrengen:
