Constructing the Oslo ‘peace: an academic-intelligence failure / Seliktar, Ofira   Journal Article
Seliktar, Ofira Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The architects of the Oslo process, at both the academic and intelligence levels, used the faulty ‘New Middle East’ paradigm to posit that the Palestinians were ripe for peacemaking. They ignored the considerable strength of the Islamists who, controlled by the Iranian regime, were deployed as peace spoilers. More than two decades after the collapse of the 2000 Camp David summit, the role of the Iranians has not been fully understood, leading most observers to assume that the Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad are independent actors.

Quranic concept of war and bounded instability: Understanding Iran’s strategy and tactics in the Middle East / Adair, Bianca L   Journal Article
Adair, Bianca L Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract IRGC-QF Commander Ghassem Soleimani served as the architect of Iran’s strategy and tactics in the Middle East. This article examines his role in shaping Iran’s regional strategy using the Quranic concept of war and bounded instability. This combination clarifies how the IRGC-QF uses volatility to generate space for Iranian militant clients to operate while creating an inhospitable environment for the U.S. Iran’s long-term goal is not peace and stability; Iran seeks to deny the U.S. victory. Doing so allows Iran to protect its territorial integrity by creating proximal space between its borders and the U.S. or American allies.
