Economic Causes (how differences over distribution of wealth—who gets what—contribute to the conflict): 2. Ethnic Causes (how differences in culture, language, and shared history contribute to the conflict): 3. Religious Causes (how differences in religious belief or practice contribute to the conflict): 4. Historical Causes (how events that have unfolded in the past contribute to the present conflict):

  5. Round 2 Questions 1. What are the options for solving this conflict? 2. Are there things that need happen before this conflict can be solved? If so what? 3. What can other countries do? 4. Does this require military intervention?

  6. Round 3 • Read the short selection about what the United States should do in Iraq. • Looking at these three options, would they work and why?
