Answer to Question 2

Answers will vary, but can include any of the following. Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab in the 1700s is recognized at the first modern Islamic fundamentalist and started the Wahhabism movement. Hassan al-Banna in the early 1900s started the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt. Sayyid Qutb, also in the early 1900s, is called the father of modern terrorism and used the ideological beliefs of al-Banna and the Muslim Brotherhood to develop revolutionary arms throughout the Middle East. Fathi Shaqaqi formed the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) from the Gaza Strip and gained support from Syria and Iran. Dr. Ramadan Abdallah Shalah became the leader of PIJ. Sheikh Ahmed Yassin founded Hamas, which is the largest and most successful Islamic fundamentalist group. 19th Century Muslim reformers, Muhammad Abdu, Jamal al-Afghani and Rashid Rida founded the Islamic philosophy of Salafism. Usama bin Laden became the charismatic and instrumental leader of the Jihadist Salafi movement, after the Soviet-Afghan War. Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini was a conservative and radical cleric that created a fundamentalist movement within the Shiite known as Khomeinism. Hassan Nasrallah created the paramilitary organization known as Hezbollah.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
