Israeli-Palestinian conflict deaths and injuries

All hell has broken loose in the recent weeks between the Israelis and Palestinians. After consecutive ferocious clashes between the Palestinian protestors and Israeli police, things got even worse as Israel decided to nuke the Hanadi Tower in Gaza that was believed to be the office and apartment of the people of Hamas. 

To retaliate, the other group fired over 130 projectile rockets towards the main cities of Israel that include Beersheba, Ashkelon, and Tel Aviv. The majority of these projectile missiles were intercepted by the missiles launched from the Iron Dome of Israel however horrific footage on social media was posted that showed a catastrophic battle of the missiles in the sky as sirens resounded all over the area.

It was reported that almost 35 deaths have occurred in Gaza meanwhile 5 people have died in Israel. After these horrendous violent attacks, the UN Middle East envoy Tor Wennesland insisted both nations stop these missiles attack otherwise we would be accelerating to another world war.

The Trade War Saga

Global markets have had one recurring nightmare – a trade war between the two largest and most dominant economies in the world. We think about none other than the U.S. and China.

Although much of the rhetoric that made headlines during Trump's presidential campaign, such as the building of a wall along the Mexican border and a large $500 billion infrastructure package, has never occurred, the president has pursued one threat; the trade wars.

How Pigs Helped Trump Win the Trade War

The U.S. and China— the world's two leading economies— were in a heated trade war, particularly over the last two years. A.S. President Donald Trump has long accused China of unfair trade practices and theft of intellectual property. But with China emerging as a global economic force, America is seen as slowing it down.

Trade wars arise when a nation enforces high tariffs on goods imported. To strike back, one foreign country reacts to the other country by enforcing similar trade protection laws. As that escalates, their disagreement has an adverse effect on international trade. All countries levied strict tariffs on each other's goods. But with China's severe shortage of pork, they are forced to loosen tariffs on imported meat, even from America.

In this section, we will review the trade war history as well as an in-depth look at the huge pork market in China and how it affects the global trade economy. They will then discuss the pork crisis in China, and how it finally gave America the upper hand in the trade war.

Trade Wars:How The Tariffs Are Affecting Us

The Trump administration early Friday more than doubled a U.S. tariff on $200 billion in Chinese imports, from 10% to 25%, sharply escalating a trade war between the two countries. The president also threatened to slap a 25% tariff on almost all the remaining $325 billion in goods shipped in from China. Negotiators for the United States and China ended a session of trade talks in Washington on Friday without an announcement of an agreement, hours after the new tariff hike took effect.
