Stories, pictures and data about 1st generation Portuguese Americans in Mattapoisett, MA
All of the stories contained in this book actually happened. There are many other stories which have been left out because there are just too many cases to cover over fifty years of law practice. Every lawyer has legal stories to tell provided that clients cases must be kept confidential. The “attorney-client privilege” must always be maintained. Lawyers are all bound by a “Code of Ethics.” They are not permitted to do just anything they feel like doing. Honesty, scruples morals, respect and integrity are key to being a good lawyer. The work of the lawyer is to help people in legal need. As stated in Deuteronomy, 16:20 “Justice, Justice Shall Though Pursue.”
In the first book-length analysis of the origins of the October 1973 Arab-Israeli War, Craig Daigle draws on documents only recently made available to show how the war resulted not only from tension and competing interest between Arabs and Israelis, but also from policies adopted in both Washington and Moscow. Between 1969 and 1973, the Middle East in general and the Arab-Israeli conflict in particular emerged as a crucial Cold War battleground where the limits of détente appeared in sharp relief. By prioritizing Cold War détente rather than genuine stability in the Middle East, Daigle shows, the United States and the Soviet Union fueled regional instability that ultimately undermined the prospects of a lasting peace agreement. Daigle further argues that as détente increased tensions between Arabs and Israelis, these tensions in turn negatively affected U.S.–Soviet relations.
