Summary/Abstract |
Building on the recent re-discovery of the Iranian Revolution, this analysis examines the policies of the Carter Administration and their effects on Iran and the Iranian opposition. Starting with Jimmy Carter's election and hopes for a new era in American-Iranian relations, there occurred the progressive creation and expansion of a rift between the Carter Administration and the Iranian opposition. This rift was exacerbated by stubborn American support for an increasingly weak Shah, and by the complete unwillingness, both in Washington and at the American Embassy in Tehran, to meet with opposition members, let alone with Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. In this sense, the horizon of the analysis of the origins of the Iran hostage crisis is expanded with a longer-term perspective. The taking of the hostages represented the final act of a troubled relationship that had probably begun before Carter took office.

Summary/Abstract |
The surprising 'Arab Spring' raises the question as to what would enable national intelligence to provide high quality warnings prior to the eruption of popular revolutions. This article uses new sources of evidence to trace and explain Israel's success in comparison to US failure at correctly estimating the course of the Iranian Revolution in 1977-79. In explaining this variance, the article shows that it was mainly the result of the intimate acquaintance of Israel's representatives in Iran with the local language, history and culture, as well as the ability to communicate with locals - tools which the Americans completely lacked.

Summary/Abstract |
Although the term Hizbullah (Party of God) has become synonymous with the Lebanese group that bears its name, the reality is that many more groups have, and currently do use the term. Sharing the same generic name however, is not necessarily indicative of ideological affinity let alone operational cooperation. This paper discusses the origins of the term and the groups that have adopted the name, as well as the links between them and with Iran. Besides some outlier Sunni groups who use the name, the best way to view the groups’ ideological leanings is to think of them as either intellectually supporting the Iranian concept of governance (khat al-Imam) or as more actively and practically advancing Iranian interests in the region (khat al-Hizbullah).

Summary/Abstract |
There are plenty of myths about the causes of the Iranian Revolution of 1979. The 1973-1974 rise in the price of crude enabled the Shah to finance his modernisation programme, but as it began to falter, dissent increased. The death of Khomeini's sons made things worse, but it was a fire in a cinema in Abadan which sparked major demonstrations. A new Prime Minister was installed but he failed to get a grip on the situation and Khomeini, by then in France, emerged as the leading opposition figure. The situation steadily deteriorated culminating in the Shah's departure in January 1979 and the melting away of the power of the army. The strategic and other consequences of the revolution were very serious. But that is another story.

Summary/Abstract |
Arms sales are a prominent issue in Israeli foreign policy. This subject has influenced the history of the state in the international arena. Arms sales serve two main goals: economic improvement, and a means for shaping the domestic policy of the recipient state. The government of Israel has acted to improve its relations with the recipient countries in the political and strategic areas in the framework of its foreign aid to those countries. Yet it has acted to change the policy in those countries - Ethiopia, Argentina and Iran - pertaining to their indigenous Jewish communities.

Summary/Abstract |
Since 1980, on the last Friday of Ramadhan, millions of Muslims all over the world have held parades to celebrate Jerusalem Day—al-Quds Day—to symbolically strengthen the Palestinian people in their struggle against Israel. It was established by Ayatollah Khomeini, who saw himself as the potential leader of the Muslim world, and Iran proclaimed it to be a national day on a par with other national and religious days and events such as Nowruz, A’shuraa, Ramadhan. This article explores the legitimacy of the status of al-Quds Day for Arab and Muslim countries and its change over time from being enthusiastically celebrated within the Arab world to becoming a marginal event that many Arab and Muslim states have been trying to ignore. The article’s main argument is that although al-Quds Day is still considered to have symbolic value for Islam and unification, the use made of it to further Iranian political interests seems to have diminished its legitimacy and reputation among non-Shiite communities in the Middle East.
