Topic Reading-Vol.875-9/3/2014

Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
Saudi king warns West will be jihadists' next target
Now the king of the oil-rich US ally in Arab is urging the west to act promptly and decisively against the extreme Islamic group, known as IS, Islamic State. Their aggressions now seem to go way beyond state borders and even religious boundaries. But isn’t that something the Security Council of the UN should be dealing with? Are there just too many conflicts that the UN can handle?
No one seems to be interested in Syria’s domestic uprising any more. The responsibility of the downed passenger plane over Crimea seems no longer a news topic. Peace talks between Israel and the Palestinian Authority don’t seem to have assured peace in the region yet. And now Russian troops are in Crimea, supporting the pro-Russian militants. As the Security Council isn’t functioning as it is supposedly, NATO and EU are taking the lead to deal with these crises.
Enjoy reading and learning how serious and threatening the IS problem is.
