Kenneth M. Pollack, formerly a Persian Gulf military analyst at the
CIA and Director for Persian Gulf Affairs at the National Security
Council, describes and analyzes the military history of the six key
Arab states--Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Libya, Saudi Arabia, and
Syria--during the post-World War II era. He shows in detail how
each Arab military grew and learned from its own experiences in
response to the specific objectives set for it and within often
constrained political, economic, and social circumstances. This
first-ever overview of the modern Arab approach to warfare provides
a better understanding of the capabilities and limitations of the
Arab militaries, some of which are the United States' most likely
adversaries, and some of which are our most important allies.
