Description

This book analyzes four main episodes of conflict and defense which have affected the Gulf region during the last three decades: the Iran-Iraq war (1980-1988), which effected the Gulf Cooperation Council from a close, neighborly distance; the Iraq-Kuwait war (1990-1991), which constituted an attempt to invade the GCC and eliminate one of its member states, Kuwait; Subsequent attempts to reestablish a regional inter-state stability in the Gulf (during the mid-1990s, approximately) and the war of Islamic terrorism against Saudi Arabia.
