Pikachuchupika 10/11/23 10:56:50 AM #1:	The middle-east still has tension and fighting between each other after several millennia. You would think they would have sorted things out by now. If you bring up history it still doesn't make sense to me because every nation has had bloody histories. Everyone knows Europe's bloody history going all the way back to the Jesus days and before. Now look at Europe: prosperous and peaceful. East Asia is another example. Lots of fighting. The Vietnam war is the last one that came to mind - but now everything is peaceful in that area. There's also another thing that the middle-east has that these other countries don't: Terrorism. It seems there's a lot of terrorists out in the middle east and they keep growing. I don't remember if there were ever any large terrorist groups in Europe or East Asia, even Africa or South America. <cite>Pikachuchupika posted [p:976596408] in How come t...
