So I'm writing a 30-page essay about Iran...

Not Comms Officer · May 18, 2015, 12:16:14 AM

...for my Political Science class. It's going to be about how Iran is using the establish a hegemony in the Middle East through a mix of NGOs and terrorist organizations along with several case examples of them employing such methods successfully.

Would any of you want me to copy-paste my essay onto here once I'm finished with it so you could read it? It's 30-page double-spaced.

You don't need more than a paragraph to explain that.

Fucking schools and their essays man.

I have to write a 30-page essay on *something*. I guess I can write it on how awesome the Basij militia is then.

Sure, it would be interesting to read, assuming it's accurate and backed up by relatively unbiased sources.

Yank essay formatting is amusing <_<

But yeah, I'd quite like to read it <.<

Some of my work directly relates to Iran's proxies in Iraq, but I also know a great deal about Iran's relationship with al Qaeda--which they also use in pursuit of regional hegemony. I can read it and offer some constructive criticism.

American education is funky. Giving insane amount of pages/words you need to write. What ever happened to being succint? Most dissertations over here aren't even 30 pages. We get an 8,000 word limit +/- 10%

ayy look who's here!!!

Now I have someone I can discuss the Middle East with. And about Iran's relationship with al-Qaeda, are you referring to Assad's (who's pretty much an Iranian puppet now) support for al-Qaeda during the Iraq War, or are you referring to a more direct connection that I'm not aware of?

Happy to do so when I'm here.

Both. Iran has directly supported AQ by allowing them to operate on its soil, so long as they don't plot against Iran inside Iran. It's literally "the enemy of my enemy is my friend."
