Title ProperMilitary intelligence, tribes, and Britain's war in Dhofar, 1970-1976
LanguageENG
AuthorJones, Clive
Publication2011.
Summary / Abstract (Note)This article examines the hitherto overlooked role of military intelligence in the Dhofar campaign of 1970-1976. Drawing on an array of new sources, it not only details the functional role of military intelligence in the campaign, but also makes a distinction between "attitudinal" and "behavioral" support in understanding the "human terrain," and thereby how military intelligence helped secure acceptance of the regime of Sultan Qaboos bin Sa'id among the tribes of Dhofar.
