"Where did you come up with that idea?!"

With the current lesson we are learning about in class (terrorism), we need to first establish some of the ideas people have about terrorism, discuss where they come from, and then only think about how do these ideas influence our course of action as a country. In order to get to that last step of action, we need to untangle ideas and stereotypes that accompany the concept of terrorism.

MAKE SURE YOUR POSTINGS ANSWER ALL OF THE QUESTIONS, REFER BACK TO THE ARTICLE, AND ARE WELL THOUGHT OUT!!!

Your job is to read through the following article AND answer the following questions:

1. What were some of the ideas and stereotypes you have about terrorism and the Middle East, in general?

2. Why do you think these ideas exist?

3. What did you learn and how does that change your understanding about the Middle East?
