Middle East Politics
Spring 2007
First Paper
Write a single 4 to 5 page essay that answers all the questions below. Use plenty of reference to Fisk’s book, and to other sources. (Be scrupulously clear about your sources!)
In The Great War for Civilization, Robert Fisk is critical of America’s policies in Afghanistan and Iran. Explain what he believes the US did wrong in each country. Were the mistakes similar or different in the two cases? Why does he believe the United States did what it did, and what do you think he thinks the US should have done differently? Do you agree or disagree? Why?
This paper is due Thursday, February 15.
