been ruthless and cruel in his attitude not only
to the people outside of his country but also to
his people. It can be seen in the hard economic
situation in the country. People do not have
enough money to buy necessary products, meanwhile
he builds palaces. Saddam has ruled through a

Individuals are propelled in to committing crime
Every crime is the result of individual, physical
and social conditions. (Ferri, 1893). In Thinking
seriously about crime Jock Young described crime

competition, and that competition is an act of
aggression. Ironically, however, competition as
aggression is inevitable in a society where men
must compete for the attention of women. Women
encourage this. Every time they passively wait for
men to take the initiative, or reject nurturing

pop-feminists contend c...
