Write a 1500-3000-word research paper on your country’s position on peace in the Middle East. Middle East peace issues are broadly defined: from Libya in North Africa to the perennial Palestinian-Israeli conflict, to the on-going U.S. occupations in Iraq and Afghanistan, to the civil war in Syria, the continuing crisis in Egypt, and the nuclear threat in Iran.

You should make sure you have a thesis statement, research and citations to back up your position, and a closing summary.

Of course, cite your sources at the end of the paper, and if you use quotations, cite those sources within the paper.
