Tactics and Force Multipliers of Modern Terrorism

Thread Prompt: What is the current threat to the United States from either a biological or
chemical weapon and why? What should the United States do to better prepare for, or counter,
the threat from WMDs (weapons of mass destruction)?

RESEARCH PAPER INSTRUCTIONS
The Research Paper must be approximately 6–8 pages of text, not including the title page and
bibliography page, and be in current APA format. You will choose the topic you write on, but your
topic must be directly related to the study of terrorism.
Your paper must be written in 12-point, Times New Roman font with 1” margins. It must include a
title page with the paper title, student name, course name, and instructor name. Include page
numbers in accordance with current APA guidelines. You must use a minimum of 5 sources from
both online and printed source material. Save the paper as
“lastnamefirstinitial.doc” (E.g. doej.doc). You must use Microsoft Word. (Neither MS Works nor
WordPerfect are acceptable.)
Your paper must make a point. Do not merely report facts. Take what is, analyze it, interpret it in
light of a personal Christian worldview, discuss options, and discuss things you think should
change. Support your ideas, give alternatives to current practice and support them, and integrate
material from textbook readings or lectures. If you are of a different major taking this as an
elective, integrate your field into this project.
Proper spelling, grammar, and sentence structure are expected. Short, choppy sentences are
NOT acceptable. This is a college course, and deductions will be made accordingly. You must
not use personal pronouns (I, me, we, us, our, etc.), and the standards of academic writing must
be applied. Have someone else proofread your paper before turning it in to ensure what you are saying makes sense.
The Research Paper will be completed in 3 parts—the Bibliography, the Outline, and the Final
Submission.
