User:Steven Clark Bennett

Hello, I'm Steven, a freshman at the University of South Carolina. I have lived in both South Carolina and Virginia. My major is history, and I plan to eventually get a PhD and become a professor. My interests include history (especially Middle Eastern and European), politics (especially international relations), world cultures, and foreign languages. I have some knowledge of Spanish, but am nowhere near fluent in it. I plan to study French and Arabic. My politics are very to the left-I most identify with Socialism, and wish the United States had a credible Socialist party (as opposed to the one we have now, which is a joke). In the Mideast, I tend to be moderately pro-Palestinian, and favor I Binational solution to the Arab-Israeli conflict. I am against the war in Iraq, and do not support partition as a solution to Iraq's ethnic problems.

Right now, I'm focusing on writing articles about the Middle East.

Articles I have started or substantially contributed too

• Aramaic
• Arabic
• Arab-Israeli Conflict
• Lebanon
• Kuwait
• Egypt
• Iran
• Maronite Church
• Mount Lebanon
• Druze
• Mediterranean Sea
• Middle East
• Syria
