Dear Ms. Saravia:

I have choosen the controversial topic of whether or not the United States should have gone to
war with Iraq. The United States had reason to believe that Iraq was harboring terrorist and
possessed weapons of mass destruction. The fact that this war impacted everyone, including the
economy and thousands of families all over the country.

I will prove why the invasion of Iraq was justified. There is evidence of the Iraqi government
possessing weapons of mass destruction and were being uncoopertive with the United Nations. A
counterargument is that the United States only found chemical weapons costing billions of
dollars.

My understanding of plagiarism and/or misrepresentation is to write down somebody elses

words and not give them credit. I understand that Sierra Vista High School holds a high standard
of academic honesty that I will abide by. I will submit my research paper to www.turnitin.com
which checks for plagiarism. I also understand that if I were to copy or plagiarize my research
paper, I will not be given credit and this may result in a disciplinary action and possible failure of
the first semester of junior English.

Sincerely,

Emmanuel Castillo
