MIDDLE EASTERN COUNTRIES WITH

PROBLEMS

Tunisia The Tunisian government is fighting with

the Islam extremists in the country, while unemployment rates are very high.

ALGERIA There are many poor people living in

Algeria, while the cost of living has steadily began increasing.

Egypt Fighting between the Muslim brotherhood

and the people backing president Morsy

Libya The US sent troops to chase down al

Qaeda members in Libya causing a civilian backlash

Saudi Arabia There is recent backlash against the

rampant sexism prohibiting women to work in certain jobs.

Jordan Taxes are rising and the city of Maan has

been abundant with protesters lighting fires to government buildings and cars.

Yemen The people are losing jobs and demand

the government help fix it.

Syria The rebels have been fighting the Syrian

government demanding a change in presidents.

My Interests I am most interested in Syria right now

because of all the talk about it recently. If the US intervened there would be a massive backlash from the US citizens and it probably wouldn’t help the fighting.
