2. Using the menu "Select a Country or Location," compute the total GDP (in US$ billions) of all 22 Arab League members (note that Occupied Palestine is implicitly referred to as "Gaza Strip" and "West Bank", because Israel continues to pressure the U.S. not to recognize Palestine as an independent state) in 2012 (or the available year). You should use ONLY the "GDP ( official exchange rate)" whenever available, NOT the GDP (purchasing power parity).
