Britain banks
Britain has ordered two state-rescued banks to sell off branches and meet new tough requirements in an effort to promote competition and appease EU authorities. Britain is looking foreigners who can buy the banks so this competition accomplish his gold, the government couldn’t get this banks because this cause the total control of Britain bank economy and it goes against its way of govern.
They are looking for the reduction of the world recession; the banks will be required to make divestments of significant parts of their businesses over the next four years. For Britain people this is not going to change the way of managing their money, this will only change the way of the structure and the control that the new owner is going to impose, so they gave people new deals and better ways to keep their money.
The treasury department said the two banks would between them have to sell off businesses equating to 10 per cent of the UK retail banking market
Iraq oildeal
On November 2, 2010 UK and China had signed a new oil deal with Iraq, this is the major one since US invade the country on 2003. Two of the most important oil companies from these countries are involved in this treaty, Rumaila is the oilfield in which hey are focusing their attention, this is one of the biggest one in the world.
With this treaty Iraq is expecting to get in to the third place in the oil production, Iraq is looking for more countries which can help them to get in to his gold; they want to take advantage of their fields because they have the third place in crude oil fields that can improve their economy because as we know, oil now a days is the biggest natural resource.
Hussain al-Shahristani, Iraq's oil minister, said: "With these contracts Iraq has started a new phase. In the past, Iraq's oil was used to finance war, to kill Iraqis and to attack neighboring countries¨

economic growth
Now a day’s everyone things that China is the next greatest economy and probably it is true because they are the greatest manufacture country in the world, the export to the hole planet and last years they have became the second world power. They are not only a big economy, they have a great culture in many aspects, they have grow a lot in many ways but it they do not start seeing India as the next potential powerful country, India could be greatest.
India has increased its economy a lot last few years as we can see in these percentages: the rate of growth improved in the 1980s. From FY 1980 to FY 1989, the economy grew at an annual rate of 5.5 percent, or 3.3 percent on a per capita basis. Industry grew at an annual rate of 6.6 percent and agriculture at a rate of 3.6 percent.
A high rate of investment was a major factor in improved economic growth. Investment went from about 19 percent of GDP. This has need a big investment for improving.
Hamas and Fatah
As we saw in class Fatah and Hamas, had has problems for a long time, at the beginning they were together as a unique political force, after the Gaza-based party won parliamentary elections in 2006, but after a political standoff between the two factions Hamas fighters forced Abbas loyalists out of the Gaza Strip in 2007.
Abbas responded to the takeover by dismissing the Fatah-Hamas unity government, resulting in two parallel administrations effectively ruling the two territories, while Egypt has attempted to broker reconciliation.
After some years Fatah tried to make a peace pact that Hamas didn’t want to sign, they have a different vision of managing the country and they have stronger taught about how to control the situation, the day was June 28, 2010.

Iran insists on nuclear development
Iran has said it will not negotiate over its right to develop a nuclear program when it meets officials from the five permanent members of the UN Security Council and Germany in Geneva on October 1.
Washington had demanded ahead of the talks that Iran come clean about its nuclear ambitions, which several Western countries have suggested include a drive towards nuclear weapons.
Javier Solana, the European Union policy chief, said that he would be seeking iron-clad guarantees that Iran's nuclear program was peaceful.
India
Since 1991, the nation has moved towards a market-based system. The policy change in 1991 came after an acute balance of payments crisis, and the emphasis since then has been to use foreign trade and foreign investment as integral parts of India's economy.
India's GDP is US$1.237 trillion, which makes it the twelfth-largest economy in the world] or fourth largest by purchasing power adjusted exchange rates. India's nominal per capita income US$1,068 is ranked 128th in the world. In the late 2000s, India's economic growth has averaged 7½% a year, which will double the average income in a decade.
So as we can see India is not that poor country that we see every were, India is an economic growing country that probably will became some of the most powerful countries in the world, this probably will occur in some years.
Mexico economic growing
Now a days we cannot see how Mexico is growing in many aspects but in economic situation Mexico is a growing important power, as we see in class this growing situation is not very clear because there’s not a visible change in life for poor people.
We all think that a powerful country consists in not poorness and a very god life style, but like we saw in class this is not totally true, a powerful country is the one who has an economic stability and political stability.
In this case Mexico is growing in economic aspects, because Europeans are coming to Mexico to establish their own business and not improve their life’s because in Europe there’s a better life style, so they look for economic opportunities.
After being an strong country, then the improve in citizens life’s come, so if Mexico wants to help their people, first it needs to get stronger.
Mexico and the EU
Mexico has an agreement with the EU, this agreement is free trade, Mexico and Chile are the only two countries in America that has this agreement.
This carries a lot of benefits from Mexico because as we study the Mexican economy is growing very fast, so if European countries establish their companies here it only gave us benefits like more jobs and increase in life style.
Mexico tries to take all barriers down for this agreement, as we can see now a days there a lot of European companies here in Mexico, they are not only for productions they also establish studies center.
I think that the EU see a big opportunity for growing in many aspects being here, like seen our culture to reproduce important aspects that can help them to improve in many things. Mexico can do the same watching all the europeans does here, we can see all the right aspects they have for being such a great power in the world
European Union
The European Union is a political and economic power that has 27 members, it was establish on 1 November 1993, it is a strong force, EU combined generates an estimated 30% share (US$18.4 trillion in 2008) of the nominal gross world product.
These are the 27 members: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom.
At the beginning there were only 6 (Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg and the Netherlands.
The EU operates through a hybrid system of supranationalism and intergovernmentalism. The EU is based on a series of treaties. These first established the European Community and the EU, and then made amendments to those founding treaties.

war is justified or not?
I think that war is justified for some reasons.
One of them is that conutries want to be more powerfull than others, and now a days power refers to how many control you have over other countries. Some onecan think that this can sounds strange but if we saw the past we can see that humanity had made it for all times.
One important aspects is that war increases economy not only in the involve contry, it also helps others because if the country doesnt have a shoes factory they buy it in other place, and we can see war as a business that improves the winner one in many ways.
The most important point for mee to said the war is justified is for self defense because every country need to react to stgrangers attack, if you do not do this your country is going to be one of many to be conquered

Liberalism vs. Realism or maybe both
Right after I left the classroom I opened my laptop and took a look at today's news. For my surprise I saw an interesting topic. The Article is called: "Iran has 'updated nuclear package'; ready to hold talks” And after reading it, it got me thinking that maybe the world has more liberals than we thought. In the UN they are seeking to get to an agreement in the limits of the nuclear program in Iran. And why is Iran willing to talk to the UN? The only reason they are willing to talk to the UN is because Germany threaten Iran if they did not meet to talk and reach an agreement. So it gets me thinking maybe we are not just Realist nor Idealist; but maybe just a combination of both. Is this really what we need right now?, or is it the future of International Relations. http://edition.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/europe/09/01/iran.nuclear.talks/index.html

The Power of Nations
The other day in class, we talked about what nations were powerful, what powerful meant, what nations could become powerful and things like that...
So, that got me thinking. What makes a nation truly great? Economic power? The natural resources? Military prowess?
Yes, mayhaps that does help the nations achieve greatness. But I think we all forgot to mention the prime resource of any nation. The backbone of it all, the base upon which the nation was founded!
Its people.
Truly, the treasure of a nation if its people. If not for those workers who toil most of their lives, in whatever they do, be it farming or working in an office, teaching or taking care of a family... In the end, any nation could not be what it is without the work of the people!
So, all those people that think that some nations will never be outstanding in anyway... well, one thing I have learned, is that, when there is people... anything is possible!
So let's make sure we, as the true treasure of not only our countries, but of the world, make the best out of the time we have been given on this earth.
