Abstract
This paper discusses the impact of American policy support for Israel on the Arab-Israeli conflict. It acknowledges America's identity as a super-power, and as such, its ability to be a determining factor in the success of a foreign national agenda. The discussion explores the issue of American support for the Israeli cause.
From the Paper
"As World War II drew to a close, and the planet was forced into a recalibration of unprecedented proportions, the United States began its long emergence as the most expansive super-power that had yet been known. Its influence, that would compete virulently with the post-war Soviet influence for half a century, has since disseminated into every facet of the geopolitical theatre. As such, American support can operate as the determining factor in the success of a national agenda."

Abstract
A paper which discusses the Middle East conflict between Israel and the Palestinians and the urgent need for intervention by a third party due to the mistrust between the leaders of both sides. The paper shows that the true victims of this conflict are the innocent populations who are harmed because Arafat and Sharon cannot reach an agreement.
From the Paper
"BBC reporter Kathryn Westcott reports a chilling trend among young teens who emulate their elders and perform suicide bombings. The military action in the West Bank has had the effect that 600,000 children have been unable to attend school. Television propaganda enrages the children and they are now beginning to take part in the violence. We must remember that children learn more by our actions than our words and we can only blame ourselves when a 14-year-old runs into a crowded mall of other school children and pulls the pin on the grenade. Some so-called ?Freedom Fighters? are even recruiting children to do their dirty work."

Abstract
This paper highlights all of the aspects of the Middle East conflict. The author has tried to be unbiased and puts across both points of view, using history and modern day events to examine the conflict.He highlights the biblical passages that laid the foreground for the claim to Israel and centers on the absurdity of all of the bloodshed over such a small strip of land. The paper concludes with the Biblical scholars' belief that the end of the conflict will come with the end of the world. The Promise The Promise Broken? The Promise Fulfilled The Counter Promise War.... And Peace?
From the Paper
"Israel is located in the Middle East, the heart of Arab country. It is bordered on the left side by the Mediterranean Sea, but from all other angles finds itself surrounded by enemies: Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, and Egypt (Will, 2001). How did Palestnian neighbors respond to the perceived "broken promise" inflicted upon their Muslim kin? These countries have sporadically sought to crush Israel since its inception, fulfilling a promise of allegiance to their Arab brothers. One tragic example was the Yom Kippur War, when Syria and Egypt launched a surprise attack on the Jewish Day of Atonement. The Israelites were able to fight off the forces, but only after a staggering amount of casualties were claimed."

Abstract
This paper describes the origins of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, explaining that the seeds of the Middle Eastern conflict were sown well before the first war between the Israelis and Palestinians in 1948. The paper traces the conflict back to the collapse of the Ottoman Empire and looks at how and why it continues to this day. The paper also looks at revisionist accounts of the conflict, suggesting that these accounts are more objective and truer to history and, therefore, are the best place to start when looking for a solution to the conflict.
From the Paper
"The Middle East Conflict, the name given to the feud over territory between the Jews and Arabs, has been building for more than 50 years and in recent years threatened to become the cause of a far greater conflict especially when viewed in the context of world affairs. In spite of a number of efforts by the UN, the US and the countries neighboring the disputed territories of Israel, no major breakthroughs have been achieved and those that have come through have eventually proved to be futile due to a number of factions and problems clouding the issue. A number of wars have been bought and vast areas exchanged hands over the first few years of the conflict but the current situation involves a number of disputed territories, vast numbers of refugees and two nations of people with no home or identity."

In order to understand the nature of the "Middle East Crisis", the paper attempts to go to its roots and ask controversial questions that have not often been asked.

A Brief History of Both Leaders
The Intifada Uprising
The Current Circumstances
U.S Role and Policy in the Middle East Conflict
The Current Saudi Proposal
Conclusion
From the Paper
"The United Nations Resolution Council (UNRC) formed the state of Israel 54 years ago. Since then, the Israelis have been expanding their territories by use of military forces. Israeli expansion of the territories was due to the massive immigrations of new Israelis to the region. The Arab and Palestinian armies wanted to go to war with Israel because they were angry about the new lands occupied by the Israeli forces. These forces went to war with the Arabs and Palestinians a number of times. Israeli forces conquered a large number of territories in the battles fought with Arabs and later created a proposal for the settlement of occupied territory. These lands have included the Gaza Strip, West Bank and East Jerusalem (Rubin 79)."

From the Paper
"The Middle East has been the scene of constant conflict since the end of World War II, centered on Israel and its Arab neighbors?Syria, Lebanon, Egypt, Jordan, and the Palestinians. Since the late 1970s, however, the Arab-Israeli conflict has shared center stage with the Persian Gulf, beginning with the Iranian hostage crisis and continuing on to the near-renewal of war between the United States and Iraq in 1998. This paper will examine those two conflicts and the attempts to end the discord.
The Middle East served as a superpower playground for four decades, with the U.S. and Soviet Union using money and arms to acquire influence. America served as Israel?s benefactor, while the Russians supplied Syria, Iraq, Egypt, and Libya. Defeats in the Six-Day War and the Yom Kippur War prompted Egypt to abandon the military option and to pursue diplomacy instead. The.."

Abstract
The paper gives a history of both Zionism and the Palestinian Liberation Organization, explaining the contributions of both sides to the current conflict.
From the Paper
"In some sense, the roots of the current cycle of violence in the Middle East stem from the founding of the modern state of Israel. (It is arguable that the current violence is actually the continuation of ancient struggles for power in the region extending back to the Egyptian empire, but that is perhaps too long a view for the current paper.) Jews came to the Middle East at the end of World War II to Palestine because they needed and wanted a place of refuge. Their tenacity in holding on to that refuge in addition to the antipathy of those who became their new neighbors (including some that had been displaced or left the new land of Israel) established the roots of the current violence."

From the Paper
"The world witnessed a historic event on September 19, 1993, when Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin and Palestine Liberation Organization Chairman Yasir Arafat signed a peace accord at the White House in Washington D.C.

From the Paper
"Sharon has spent years trying to erase the stain of the Lebanon War. Still, the legal defeat would seem to be the least of his troubles. After he won the premiership by promising to bring peace and security to Israel's citizens, Sharon has produced neither. The conflict with the Palestinians continues to escalate. The day of the court ruling, four Israelis died in Palestinian attacks; the following day, six soldiers died in a strike against an army roadblock. Sharon responded with a rare speech to the nation--in which he disappointed all expectations that he would announce a new policy direction. Among voters, confidence that he has a strategy is bleeding away. In one Israeli public-opinion poll, 29 percent of respondents said that Sharon had a clear plan, while 58 percent said he was simply reacting to events."

Abstract
This paper examines how the next conflict in the Middle East may be over water, not oil. It discusses how, with fast-growing populations to feed, Middle Eastern countries are looking anxiously at where they will find the water for agriculture and industry. It looks at how the water problem has come, in the recent years, to the forefront in the relations among the countries of the Middle East and occupies an important place on the agenda of several international organizations.
Outline
The General Situation
Turkey vs. Syria and Iraq
Israel vs. Lebanon
Conclusion
From the Paper
"A 1998 conflict over water nearly resulted in war. Syria was upset over a Turkish scheme to build a string of dams cross the Upper Euphrates as part of its South East Anatolia Project, which was depriving Syria of water on which its agriculture so heavily depends. The Syrians complained not only about the quantities released but also the quality. The series of dams built by Turkey upstream on the Euphrates means that the water reaching Syria had been used several times for irrigation, thus increasing salinity and harming crops, as well as causing erosion on the banks since it ran faster after being deprived of silt."

Abstract
This paper provides a review of the related literature to show how there are three aspects that have contributed to the historic incidence of violence in the Middle East. It looks at how the reasons include the competition for scarce resources; a highly patriarchal social framework that disenfranchises women and encourages violence as a legitimate and acceptable practice; and inter- and intra-religious differences.
Outline:
Review and Discussion
Competition for Scarce Resources
Highly Patriarchal Social Framework
Inter- and Intra-Religious Differences
Conclusion
From the Paper
"The Middle East features the mixed blessing of having religious sites that are common to the three major faiths in the region, Christianity, Islam and Judaism. Jerusalem in particular remains a mish-mash of legalities and religious niceties that have thus far allowed all three faiths to co-exist, but tensions remain high and everyone suspects everyone else of trying to preempt their historic claims on every square inch of soil. In this explosive environment, history will likely continue to repeat itself as one faith fights to assert its rights over scarce land based on biblical claims and religious interpretations. According to Blanche (2005), "The emergence of a Shiite-dominated government in Iraq is causing deep unease in the Arab world, which for centuries has been ruled by the majority Sunnis. "

Abstract
This paper concerns the topic of idealistic and realistic theories of international relations. Firstly, the paper draws a comparison between idealists and realists, contrasting their political viewpoints. Secondly, the paper applies these political theories to the present situation in the Middle East and U.S. interests. This is done via historical synopsis, beginning with the establishment of the State of Israel. Finally, the approach of the USA to the conflict is evaluated in realistic or idealistic terms.
From the Paper
"Who are idealists? Who are realists? How do these theories affect the study of international relations? Realism/Idealism are ways to rhetorically study international relations. How does these affect the conflict in the Middle East? Idealists can be said to have ?wholesome ways?, how does this affect the Middle East? Realists are said to have ?no-nonsense ways? has does this affect their view with the Middle East? Should both viewpoints be combined to decide the best for international relations?"

Abstract
This paper explains the origins of hatred in the Middle East linking it to the U.S. Foreign Policy. The author cites examples of US involvement in the region -- emphasizing the US's bias towards Israel over its neighboring countries, Jordan, Egypt etc.
From the Paper
"It is said that U.S. Foreign Policy is to blame for widespread anti-Americanism in the Middle Eastern nations and regions. Major policy critics and politicians for instance Zunes, Chomsky, Telhami, and Blum brought up many important issues that are directly linked to the foreign policy. Political and military actions taken by the United States in the past raised much disapproval and hate in the Muslim world population and planted a cause for the formation of Islamic extremist groups and their followers."
