Abstract

Extensible au gre des pulsions americaines, le Grand Moyen-Orient s'etend desormais de l'Atlantique a l'Indonesie, sur plus de 50 degres de latitude. En raison de sa position strategique aux confins de l'Eurasie autant que par sa richesse en gaz et petrole, cette immense 'ceinture verte' islamique detient un potentiel de puissance considerable et constitue un enjeu majeur. De son devenir, mis en question par le tempete actuelle, depend en bonnee partie la physionomie de notre monde de demain : sera-t-il unipolaire, aux ordres de l'Occident comme il l'a ete depuis la fin de la guerre froide, ou multipolaire comme le preconisent les emergents ? Telle est la question posee. Les 'revolutions arabes' s'inscrivent dans cette problematique planetaire. La 'democratisation' a la mode Bush n'est evidemmment qu'un grossier pretexte pour faciliter la realisation du reve des strateges neo-cons : remodeler le Grand Moyen-Orient en y cassant les Etats les plus modernes, notamment les Etats-nations, pour le reduire a un patchwork d'entites confessionnelles ou ethniques, de maniere a ce que l'Amerique s'en assure le controle strategique et qu'Israel y garde la preeminence. Pourquoi crier au conspirationnisme ? Il s'agit tout simplement d'un grand dessein annonce urbi et orbi par ses promoteurs depuis les annees 1970, un dessein qui d'ailleurs a trouve de nombreux complices dans le monde arabe, notamment dans la mouvance islamiste qui pense pouvoir jouer au plus fin. D'ou l'attelage etrange que nous voyons a l'oeuvre, reunissant deux allies de cironstance qui peinent a regarder dans la meme direction, tant leurs messianismes concurrents, celui de l'occident imperial et celui de l'islam sunnite radical, tirent a hue et a dia. Pour les Etats plonges dans ce tumulte infernal, il n'est pas d'autre choix que de se soumettre a l'arrogant Occident ou de rejoindre le camp de la resistance, celui des emergents.

Abstract

In this unparalleled investigation, the author exposes the true extent of Western interference in the Middle East over the past one hundred years. Drawing on the examination of hundreds of leaked and declassified documents, and interviews with former officials, academics, journalists and activists, he shows how the region's most powerful actors have been manipulated by foreign players in a game that has given rise to dictators, sectarian wars, bloody counter-revolutions and the most brutal incarnation of extremism ever seen.

Abstract

The United States is in need of a major change in approach if it is to maintain both its leadership and its credibility in the Muslim world. The political leadership in Washington naively and unrealistically assumes that it can impose its style of governance and way of thinking to make the Muslim world secular and democratic based on Western values. This volume constructively criticizes and objectively analyzes the present American political strategy to make possible an honest national debate about American foreign policy toward the Muslim world. This book questions the judgment of American foreign policy makers and argues that the United States has no coherent policy in place to address ongoing challenges. It highlights the need for creative thinking, flexibility, systematic understanding, cultural awareness, and effective strategy.

Abstract

U.S. policy in the Middle East has had very few successes in recent years, so maybe it's time for a different approach. But is the new approach of the Trump administration - military disengagement coupled with unquestioning support for key allies-Israel, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia - the way forward ? In this edited volume, noted experts on the region lay out a better long-term strategy for protecting U.S. interests in the Middle East. The authors articulate a vision that is both self-interested and carefully tailored to the unique dynamics of the increasingly divergent sub-regions in the Middle East, including North Africa, the Sunni Arab bloc of Egypt and Persian Gulf states, and the increasingly chaotic Levant. The book argues that the most effective way to pursue and protect U.S. interests is unlikely to involve the same alliance-centric approach that has been the basis of Washington's policy since the 1990s. Instead, the United States should adopt a nimbler and less military-dominant strategy that relies on a diversified set of partners and a determination to establish priorities for American interests and the use of resources, both financial and military. In essence, the book calls for a new post-Obama and post-Trump approach to the region that reflects the fact that U.S. interests are changing and likely will continue to change.
