From ancient times the  Middle East has had a rich culture and history. The arts and science,  mathematics,  language,  religions laws, had their beginnings in ancient Phoenicia, Sumer, Persia, and Egypt, It is the birth place of three of the worlds great religions.  Today the Middle East is in great turmoil. It is a land of great wealth, violence and uncertainty. The people yearn for peace and prosperity but must deal with insurgencies, inequality and daily violence.
