ARTICLES RELATED TO Confrontation | | | |  Confrontation: Encyclopedia II - Sovereignty of the Falkland Islands - ConfrontationIn 1976, Argentina landed an expedition in Southern Thule, an island in the South Sandwich Islands which at that time was part of the Falkland Islands Dependency. The landing was only reported in the UK in 1978, although the UK government stated a rejection of the notion of sending a force of Royal Marines to expel the Argentine base, Corbeta Uruguay.

| | | | Confrontation: Encyclopedia II - Jewish views of religious pluralism - Modern post-Enlightenment era Jewish views
Jewish views of religious pluralism - Views on dialogue with non-Jews in general.
Conservative, Reform and Reconstructionist rabbis engage in interfaith religious dialogue, and while most Orthodox rabbis do not participate in it, a small number of Modern Orthodox do.
Rabbi Lord Immanuel Jakobovits, former Chief Rabbi of the United Synagogue of Great Britain, describes a commonly held Jewish view on this issue:
"Yes, I do believe in the Chosen people concept as affirmed by Judaism in its holy writ, i ...

| | | | Confrontation: Encyclopedia II - History of Malaysia - Overview The history of the Malaysian area can be seen as four successive phases of outside influence, followed by the final assertion of Malay independence.
The first phase saw the domination of Hindu culture imported from India, which reached its peak in the great Srivijaya civilisation based in Sumatra, which ruled most of the Malay world from the 7th to the 14th centuries.
The second phase began with the arrival of Islam, which began in the 10th century, and led to the conversion of most of the Malay-Indonesian world and the ...

| | | | Confrontation: Encyclopedia II - History of Singapore - Republic of Singapore 1965 – present Immediately after independence, the tiny island nation of Singapore seemed extremely inadequate to survive by itself; much of the international media were sceptical of prospects for her survival. The pressing issues were unemployment, housing, education, lack of natural resources and lack of land. The unemployment rate, ranging between 10-12%, became an extremely thorny issue. The loss of access to the Malaysian hinterland and the lack of natural resources meant that Singapore had no solid traditional sources of income. A large portion of th ...

| | | | Confrontation: Encyclopedia II - Indonesian Civil War - G30S and retaliation Exactly what happened on October 1, 1965 continues to be unclear due to accusations and counter-accusations by the various actors involved. The undisputed facts are that in the early hours of that day, a company of soldiers from the Palace Guard, the Tjakrabirawa, raided the homes of seven of the right-wing anti-Communist generals in the Indonesian capital Jakarta.
Three of the generals were killed immediately and another three captured. A seventh target, the Defense Minister and Chief-of-Staff of the Indonesian Armed Forces, General ...

| | | | Confrontation: Encyclopedia II - Miniature wargaming - Rulesets There are any number of miniature wargaming rulesets, including some which are available free on the internet. Most rulesets are intended for a specific historical period or fictional genre. Rules also vary in the model scale they use: one infantry figure may represent one man, one squad, or much larger numbers of actual troops.
Wargaming in general owes its origins to military simulations, most famously to the Prussian staff training system Free Kriegspiel. Consequently, rules designers struggle with the perceived obligation to actua ...

| | | | Confrontation: Encyclopedia II - 1983 in music - Events The most long-term influential release of 1983 is probably Head over Heels by the Cocteau Twins, which sold poorly upon its initial release. In the ensuing years, the album's eclectic assortment of alternative rock, New Wave and synth pop influences became a cornerstone of later alternative rock groups, most especially in the United Kingdom, where the Cocteau Twins' mix of airy textures and breathless vocals (dream pop) mutated into genres like twee pop, space rock and shoegazing, and eventually hit mainstream success with ...

| | | | Confrontation: Encyclopedia II - Bob Marley - Posthumous reputation Bob Marley's music and legend have gone from strength to strength in the years since his early death and continue to produce a huge stream of revenue for his estate, while also bringing him a nearly mythic status in music history. He remains enormously popular and well known all over the world, and particularly so in Africa. In 1993, Marley was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Time magazine chose Marley and the Wailers' album "Exodus" as the greatest album of the 20th century.

Jewish views of religious pluralism - General classical views on other religions.
Jews believe that God chose the Jewish people to be in a unique covenant with God, described by the Torah itself, with a specific mission — to be a light unto the nations, and to exemplify the covenant with God as described in the Torah. This view, however, did not preclude a belief that God has a relationship with other peoples — rather, Judaism held that God had entered into a covenant wi ...
