to action and maintain them in theater for up to 90 days without need <\/p>\n

September 11, 2001, President Bush sent troops into Afghanistan and Iraq<\/p>\n
in support of the \u201cwar\u201d on terror. This assignment will provide <\/p>\n
students an opportunity to investigate the arguments in support and in <\/p>\n
opposition to military involvement, evaluate Americans\u2019 levels of <\/p>\n
support for the conflicts, and describe the global impact of this <\/p>\n
military intervention.<\/p>\n

\npresident\u2019s justification for military intervention in Iraq and
\nAfghanistan. Additionally, students should identify another government
\nofficial who supported military intervention and their reasons for doing
\nso.<\/li>\n
\nimpact of U.S. military intervention domestically. Questions that should
\nbe answered in addressing this section include: Did the American public
\nsupport intervention? Did the level of support change over time? Did
\nthese opinions result in any electoral shifts?<\/li>\n
\nimpact of U.S. military intervention on other countries. Did the U.S.
\nreceive international support for our military intervention? Why or why
\nnot? Did our military intervention lead to regime changes? Describe
\nthem. What has been the impact of those regime changes?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
\nat least two peer-reviewed or scholarly journal articles, one for each
\nargument they present with in-text citations and a works cited or
\nreferences page at the end of the paper (the citation page is not
\nincluded in the page minimum or maximum).\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\nand assess information relevant to the Assessment Scenario and the
\nquestions listed within the scenario. Next, analyze, evaluate, and
\nsynthesize. Synthesize means combining two or more pieces of
\ninformation to form something greater more complex. For example, the
\nU.S. invaded Iraq (information piece one) and the government of Saddam
\nHussein was overthrown (information piece two) which allowed a
\ndemocratic government to be installed (synthesis.) The decision to
\ninvade Iraq (and Afghanistan) involved decisions by the President and
\nhis immediate advisors. Other decisions dealt with how to prosecute the
\nwar in each country, how to deal with enemy forces such as the Taliban,
\nour response to fighting among factions (Sunni and Shia) in Iraq, etc.
\nYou will be required to evaluate U.S. choices and actions, and relate
\nthe consequences of these actions to Presidential decision-making (i.e.,
\nwas there an alternative to invading Iraq? Why or why not? Should we
\nhave pulled out of Iraq when we did? Why or why not?) Finally, after
\nreading the Assessment Scenario, was invasion the right thing to do?
\nWhat was the impact of these wars on the international reputation of the
\nU.S.? Did the wars in any way affect you, your family, or your
\ncommunity? If so, how? Once you have completed your research, you will
\ndevelop, interpret, and express your research and ideas in an essay that
\nshould run about three-to-four, typed, double-spaced pages long. You
\nwill need to consult sources other than your textbook on this assignment
\nbecause your textbook is not sufficient for you to gather enough
\ninformation. When you have finished it, save it as a doc or docx file
\n(not a pdf, wps, or pages file) and upload it in Canvas.<\/p>\n
