What was the purpose of the Iranian Nuclear Deal? An insightful resource explains nuclear tensions in the Middle East and Iranian weapon development that contributed to the Nuclear Deal in 2013. Academics learn the agreement limited Iran's development of nuclear weapons and discover why US Congress opposed the deal. Class members then create a Senate subcommittee to propose their own resolutions and present them to the class.
