Congratulations! By engaging in the task structured into this WebQuest, you have gained insight into different aspects of the war. You are now in a better position to look at the issue from different and multiple perspectives after experiencing divergent and conflicting perspectives, goals, interests, and motivations of those people who hold power and authority to make important decisions about the future of their countries. Your engagement with critical analysis of the issue through online research will help you stay away from the political manipulations of various political interest groups and parties. By evaluating the war with Iraq within the larger historical, social, economic, cultural, and ideological framework, you developed your skills in understanding how decision makers of the past shaped the present and how decisions of today's policy makers can shape the future. The war with Iraq will certainly have long-lasting effects on people's lives both in the Middle East and in the world, and you can view those prospects effects and changes from a better vantage point.
