 Aristotle's Logic
The force of the qualification "because of their being so" has sometimes been seen as ruling out arguments in which the conclusion is not ‘relevant’ to the premises, e.g., arguments in which the premises are inconsistent, arguments with conclusions that would follow from any premises whatsoever, or arguments with superfluous premises.
The middle term must be either subject or predicate of each premise, and this can occur in three ways: the middle term can be the subject of one premise and the predicate of the other, the predicate of both premises, or the subject of both premises.

 The Library of Congress - About the Library - Testimony to Congress
We are now discovering—painfully and much too slowly—that deep conflict between cultures is in many ways being fired up rather than cooled down by this revolution in communications, as was the case in the 16th and 19th centuries.
We call these projects Global Gateways; and with Russia and Brazil they have so far been focused (1) on comparisons with the American experience as a continent-sized, frontier nation; and (2) with Spain, France and the Netherlands on their respective roles in the Americas during the colonial era.
