Thursday, January 29, 2004 Why the Gulf looks to America - IHT "A nuclear Iran would disrupt the balance of power on the Gulf peninsula while posing a serious challenge to the security of the region's natural resources. One possible response to this threat would be for Saudi Arabia to develop its own weapons of mass destruction. But this is a Pandora's box no Gulf state wants to open. Instead, the emphasis has been on getting American security guarantees. The leaders of the Gulf region want American troops to stay. Where is Europe in this picture? Not present." |
