From the Paper
"Shibley Telhami characterized the Camp David Accords between Egypt and Israel, concluded under the aegis of the United States in 1978, as a remarkable event in Middle East history. From the perspective of international politics, Telhami believes that Camp David provides an excellent opportunity for examining international bargaining and exploring the relative explanatory power of several causal variables. Among these variables are super power and regional relations, conflicts in culture and the actual structure of the process of bargaining as well as the ... "

Abstract
This paper discusses how, though many attempts have been made to assuage the turmoil that has escalated during the course of time between Israel and Palestine, perhaps no effort was more significant (and controversial) as the Camp David Peace Talks of 2000. The paper examines the basic outline of the Camp David Summit of 2000 and the points of negotiation/contention. Taking each point individually, the paper attempts to assess why the Palestinians felt they got the "short end of the stick" and how no real progress was made.
From the Paper
"It is important to note, that the borders for the West Bank were somewhat modified from their original structure prior to 1967, and this was due to what were known as the 1993 Oslo Accords. The new borders were described as what is now known as the "Green Line" borders, that were demarcated during these 1993 talks (Gelvin 32). This delineation was something that both Israel and Palestine had come into agreement with.
With regards to these borders, Palestinians wanted full control of the West Bank up to this region. What then Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak proposed was to set up a Palestinian state on approximately 100% of the Gaza Strip, and 70% of the West Bank region (to the "Green Line" borders), with gradual withdrawal of Israeli occupation, increasing that number to nearly 90% in a span of about 25 years (Gelvin 32). "

Abstract
The first part of the paper looks at the goals of the accords, particularly in terms of economics, politics, and the military. The next part looks at the behavior that the Israeli, Egyptian, and the United States governments brought to the bargaining table at Camp David. Particular attention is paid to the dual role the American government played as both participant and mediator in these negotiations. In the conclusion, the paper examines why the Camp David Accords failed to bring about a permanent peace in the region and makes recommendations regarding the conditions necessary for a lasting peace in the Middle East.
From the Paper
'Signed in 1978, the historic Camp David Accords were supposed to usher in a new era of peace between Israel and Egypt. Because the deal was brokered by then President Jimmy Carter at his Maryland presidential retreat, the Camp David Accords also signified the growing role of the United States in maintaining an international balance of power. The accord further illustrated how this global and regional balance of power has superseded traditional territorial conquests in the Middle East region, raising hopes that diplomatic channels could help bring about an elusive peace.'

Abstract
This paper discusses the historic accord between Egypt and Israel that was worked out at Camp David through the mediation of U.S. President Carter between Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin. The writer provides brief biographies of the three leaders and an overview of the political background and events leading up to Jimmy's Carter's initiative to bring Sadat and Begin to Camp David to work out a treaty. What transpired during the talks is described, and the writer explains how the lives and beliefs of each leader affected their outcome. A summary is provided of the contents of the two documents that were drawn up there and laid the framework for all the agreements which came after them, and the paper concludes that Camp David is a memorial to Jimmy Carter's resolve, fortitude and faith.
From the Paper
"Modern Israel was founded in 1948. Egypt declared war. From that date until the signing of the actual treaty of peace resulting from the Camp David Accords, no Arab nation had recognized Israel's right to exist. In 1967, during what was called the Six Day War, Israel occupied the Sinai Peninsula which had belonged to Egypt. Sadat realized he could not get it back by force of arms so he was willing to negotiate. Israel did not want an autonomous Palestinian homeland in the middle of their country. So Begin realized that he had a major bargaining chip in the Sinai and in return for its return he believed Egypt would cease their demand for a Palestinian homeland."

Abstract
In this essay, a father writes a letter to his son who died while they were in a Japanese Internment camp during World War II. Although this is a fictional account, the emotions and events depicted are vivid and based on truth. This story touches on events such as Roosevelt's order to inter Japanese citizens during the war, as well as describing the lives Japanese-Americans had made for themselves on the West Coast following their immigration to the US. The narrator also discusses the reparations the US government offered to pay Japanese-Americans following the war, questioning whether the money was worth the loss of his only son.
From the Paper
"I was so wrapped up in my own feelings that I barely realized that you were coming down with an awful cold. The cold must have lasted for weeks before I even realized that you were under the weather. Please don't get the idea that I did not care about you. I cared about you deeply but I didn't understand how badly the camp was ruining my perception of the world around me. The look in your face was becoming pale everyday yet I did nothing to help you. I was stuck in my own fear of what would happen if I would actually go and face reality. Writing this letter to you today has made me open up the wounds that will allow me to deal with the scars that were created such a long time ago."

Abstract
This paper details David's historical success in gaining power and unifying the people of Israel. This paper also discusses David's complex character that learns from each experience and recognizes the value of keeping promises and honoring alliances. The author of this paper examines Deuteronomy's theory that David's rise to power and unifying the Israelites was simply because he was appointed by God to do so. This narrative offers a steady path of intellectual growth and self-awareness that would contradict a strict Deuteronimistic interpretation.
From the Paper
"However, David also takes his men into battle against other tribes, and does not shrink from wiping out entire populations because he does not want survivors to spread the word that he has restricted his attacks to Canaanite peoples. He has also been building his own wealth with booty from his conquests. In addition, he takes two wives, Abibail, the wife of Nabal and Ahinoam of Jezreel."

Abstract
The paper relates how Sir David Edward and the making of substantive European law have become fairly conjoined in the minds of most legal observers over the course of the past decade-and-a-half. With this in mind, the paper briefly discusses Judge Edward's steady rise to the top of his profession, as well as the maturation of the peculiar institution - the European Court of Justice - with which he is most associated. Just as importantly, the paper examines the evolution of the European Union, for without this Union's emergence and growth, the story of David Edward would be dramatically different.

Abstract
In this article, the writer discusses some of the ideas of the 18th century Scottish philosopher, David Hume. The writer examines Hume's concept of cause and effect. David Hume's use of reason versus experience is discussed in this paper. The writer also looks at Hume's view of religion.
From the Paper
"David Hume was an eighteenth century Scottish philosopher and historian. He believed that the biggest obstacle to improvement in the moral or metaphysical sciences was what he referred to as the obscurity of the ideas and ambiguity of the terms. Hume argued that conventional definitions defining terms in terms of other terms create confusion by substituting synonyms for the original and thus never break new ground. Stephen Miller writing in "Wilson Quarterly" explains that Hume believed determining the cognitive content of a idea or term required ... "
