Homework due 2/13/14

Look at the list of operative clauses in your student handbook.  Make sure you have several of these in this section.

Your solutions listed in section 3 are not your ideas, but rather the ideas of the delegation of Israel.  Look for what is happening now in Israel, and you can talk about continuing their progress.  Look for quotes and programs.  No matter what, Israel will want a solution to any UN related issue.  Ask for help if you don't see how to write this section.
