The Iran-Iraq War - The Iraq-Kuwait Conflict - Between the Gulf Wars: Restrained Conflict - Al{u2013}Qa{u2019}ida{u2019}s Challenge: Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and the War Against Terrorism, 1992{u2013}2005
This book analyzes four main episodes of conflict and defense which have affected the region during the last three decades: the Iran-Iraq war (1980-1988), which effected the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) 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. And the subsequent attempts to reestahblish a regional inter-state stability in the Gulf (during the mid-1990s, approximately), and the war of Islamic terrorism (notably al-Qa'ida) against Saudi Arabia (leading up to 2005) -- on cover.
