Description:

The workshop examines policy options for the US in dealing with Middle East states and non-state actors which have been labeled pariahs, rogues, and Foreign Terrorist Organizations. Specifically, we will look at Syria, Iran, Sudan, Hezbollah and Hamas. It will examine the behavior, goals and practices of the states and non-state actors; and will consider the range of possible American policy responses, such as rhetoric, sanctions, diplomatic engagement, and the threat/use of force (military and counter-terrorism).
