...expedition of Lewis and Clark is a highly important and interesting piece of history. We have learned about the expedition for years in school. Many people believe that the expedition was the downfall of the indians in the west. Some people believe that along the expedition that Lewis and Clark weren’t respectful and mean to the indians. I believe that Lewis and Clark were very respectful to the indians, except that they were ignorant towards the indians treating some of them like kids. They had many contacts with indians and all but two of them were peaceful and very respectful visits. When the expedition was about to begin Thomas Jefferson wrote a letter to Meriwether Lewis. The letter was explaining how they need to act around and treat the natives. Jefferson wrote, “ treat them in the most friendly and conciliatory manner which their own conduct will admit…”. Since the president told them to be respectful these men are going to be respectful. But, their relationship with the indians wasn’t all tea parties and fun games. Jefferson wrote to Lewis telling him he needs to try his hardest to take numbers of the men and extent of their weapons, and possessions. In conclusion, Jefferson wanted the men to be respectful and think strategically....

...people, Lewis and Clark to explore the new U.S land and find a water route to the pacific ocean. When they did, Lewis and Clark were praised, and was known as heroes, but I believe that the Native Americans were the real heroes. They provided maps, food etc. but Lewis and Clark were disrespectful and they took credit for things that were already discovered, by the Natives. The Native Americans gave Lewis and Clark maps, horses, guidance and they helped move their baggage. According to the view from the shore video,¨They provided horses, guidance, and edible food.” This shows me that the natives opened their arms and took the pioneers under their wing. They gave them the energy and tools to continue their journey. They were also kind and respectful about it too. Lewis and Clark weren’t very respectful despite the tribe’s kindness. According to the discovering Lewis and Clark text,” When you read the journals of Lewis & Clark, you realize how ignorant they were of indian beliefs/customs.” This shows me that they weren’t very open minded about the indians. Also, they would show up to the tribes and shoot an airgun, disturbing the indian’s peace. (According to the ‘Lewis and Clark's encounters with the native americans’ worksheet)...

Libya in U.S. Demonology Part 4. The U.S. Role in the Middle East Part 5. International Terrorism: Image and Reality Part 6. The World after September 11 Part 7. U.S./Israel-Palestine Notes Preface to the First Edition (1986) St. Augustine tells the story of a pirate captured by Alexander the Great, who asked him "how he dares molest the sea." "How dare you molest the whole world?" the pirate replied: "Because I do it with a little ship only, I am called a thief; you, doing it with a great navy, are called an Emperor." The pirate's answer was "elegant and excellent," St. Augustine relates. It captures with some accuracy the current relations between the United States and various minor actors on the stage of international terrorism: Libya, factions of the PLO, and others. More generally, St. Augustine's tale illuminates the meaning of the concept of international terrorism in contemporary Western usage, and reaches to the heart of the frenzy over selected incidents of terrorism currently being orchestrated, with supreme cynicism, as a cover for Western violence. The term "terrorism" came into use at the end of the eighteenth century, primarily to refer to violent acts of governments designed to ensure popular submission. That concept plainly is of little benefit to the practitioners of state terrorism...
