They start to fight, and the text concludes with their shields smashed.

António was popular with the island residents, who embraced him as their sovereign and swore fealty.

Philip II of Spain heard of the state of Terceira and its dependants, and, except for São Miguel and Santa Maria, its residents rejected the installation of the new Governor that he sent to the islands.
Concerns about Israel's nuclear program were tabled by the United States during the build-up to the Six-Day War and its aftermath.

Rostow wrote in a memo advocating American economic aid to Egypt: "While no one likes the idea of paying off a bully, Nasser is still the most powerful figure in the Middle East...and has restrained wilder Arabs who have for a disastrous Arab-Israeli showdown".
Bart, deeply troubled by Edna's statement, sneaks into the school late at night to spike Zack's "Blue Bronco" energy drink and get Edna's old job back, but cannot go through with it and instead decides to tell Skinner the truth and face punishment.

Their conversation is suddenly disrupted by a belligerently drunk Zack — who ironically secretly mixes vodka in his own drink and mocks the schoolchildren, telling them they have no future because their education will not help them achieve real things in life. Groundskeeper Willie drags Zack away with the remark "It's always the good ones that go crazy the fastest", and Edna is reinstated.
Tondo and its rulers were initially ignored by the Spanish during the conquest of Manila bay, because the Spanish focused their attention on Manila, which had fortifications that Tondo did not. While Spanish colonizers first arrived in the Philippines in 1521, the Spanish only reached the Manila Bay area and its settlements in 1570, when Miguel López de Legazpi sent Martín de Goiti to investigate reports of a prosperous Moro settlement on the island of Luzon. De Goiti arrived in mid-1570 and was initially well received by Maynila's ruler Rajah Matanda, who, as former commander of the Naval forces of Brunei, had already had dealings with the Magellan expedition in late 1521. Negotiations broke down, however, when another ruler, Rajah Sulayman, arrived and began treating the Spanish belligerently, saying that the Tagalog people would not surrender their freedoms as easily as the "painted" Visayans did.
Wright continued to write short stories in this period; in 2012 Brooks Hefner revealed heretofore unknown short stories that featured an intellectual criminal, written by Wright under a pseudonym several years before his adoption of the Van Dine pseudonym. Wright was, however, most respected in intellectual circles for his writing about art. In Modern Painting: Its Tendency and Meaning (secretly co-authored in 1915 with his brother Stanton), he surveyed the important art movements of the last hundred years from Manet to Cubism, praised the largely unknown work of Cézanne, and predicted a coming era in which an art of color abstraction would replace realism. Admired by people like Alfred Stieglitz and Georgia O'Keeffe, Wright became under his brother's tutelage one of the most progressive (and belligerently opinionated) art critics of the time and helped to organize several shows, including the "Forum Exhibition of Modern American Painters", that brought the most advanced new painters to the attention of audiences on both coasts.
Regarding the One-China policy, Japan had been an earnest ally to Taiwan, however, global politics pushed Japan to overturn its position. As the attempt to belligerently recover mainland China failed and faded and the Taipei-based government was expelled, voted out of UN in a General Assembly vote, by majority UN member states via United Nations General Assembly Resolution 2758, soon after US President Richard Nixon's visit to People's Republic of China in 1972 and the release of the "Joint Communiqué of the United States of America and the People's Republic of China," Japan's Liberal Democratic Party-majority government led by Kakuei Tanaka decided to establish formal diplomatic relations with the PRC. Before this, Japan had already had robust non-governmental trading relations with the PRC without formal diplomatic recognition. As a pre- condition for building ties with the PRC, Japan abrogated and made defunct the Treaty of Taipei in relation to then non-recognized Taiwan polity.
In it, Maimonides describes his assessment of the treatment of the Jews at the hands of Muslims: > ... on account of our sins God has cast us into the midst of this people, > the nation of Ishmael [that is, Muslims], who persecute us severely, and who > devise ways to harm us and to debase us.... No nation has ever done more > harm to Israel. None has matched it in debasing and humiliating us. None has > been able to reduce us as they have.... We have borne their imposed > degradation, their lies, their absurdities, which are beyond human power to > bear.... We have done as our sages of blessed memory have instructed us, > bearing the lies and absurdities of Ishmael.... In spite of all this, we are > not spared from the ferocity of their wickedness and their outbursts at any > time. On the contrary, the more we suffer and choose to conciliate them, the > more they choose to act belligerently toward us.
There is a > consensus among publicists that the prohibition of racial discrimination, > irrespective of territories, is an imperative norm of international law. It has been observed that a double standard appears to apply with regard to Israel's violations of UN resolutions and comparable violations by some other countries. Whereas the UNSC resolutions 660 and 687 regarding Iraq's Invasion of Kuwait and the UNSC 1441 before the Gulf War demanded Iraq's immediate withdrawal from land it occupied belligerently, and regarded as a casus belli its putative recourse to a programme for building weapons of mass destruction, Israel, though occupying a foreign territory and reputedly having an atomic arsenal, was treated differently. The difference lies in the fact that UN Security Council resolutions against Israel are widely thought to be passed under Chapter VI of the United Nations Charter and are non-binding, being concerned with disputes that are to be resolved peacefully, whereas in the case of Iraq, the resolutions were passed under Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter, which are legally binding.
