  • U.S. and Iranian Strategic Competition
    1 U.S. AND IRANIAN STRATEGIC COMPETITION: Iran’s Perceptions of its External Relations and their Implications for Strategic Competition with the U.S. in the Gulf, Sept. 2010 – May 2011 By Alexander Wilner May 19, 2011 Anthony H. Cordesman Arleigh A. Burke Chair in Strategy [email protected] 2 The Burke Chair has compiled a series of chronological reports with the assistance of Adam Seitz of the Marine Corps University that focus on Iranian perceptions of national security and assess Iran’s intentions concerning competition with the US. The latest version of these reports is entitled “U.S. and Iranian Strategic Competition: Iran’s Perceptions of its Internal Developments and their Implications for Strategic Competition with the U.S. in the Gulf,” and is available on the CSIS website at http://csis.org/publication/us-and- iranian-strategic-competition-3. Previous versions include: “U.S. and Iranian Strategic Competition: Iran’s Perceptions of its Ballistic Missile Program and Competition with the US in the Gulf, Sept. 2010 – Feb. 2011,” http://csis.org/publication/us-and-iranian-strategic- competition-2, and “U.S. and Iranian Strategic Competition: Iranian Views of How Iran’s Asymmetric Warfare Developments Affect Competition with the US in the Gulf, Sept. 2010 – Feb. 2011,” http://csis.org/publication/us-and-iranian-strategic-competition-1. The Iranian government’s statements and diplomatic activity provide valuable insight into the country’s strategic competition with the US. They help show how the regime perceives its relationship with the international community and responds to external pressure. The regime’s multifaceted engagement with its Arab neighbors in the Gulf, Afghanistan, and the South Caucasus as well as its burgeoning diplomatic activity in Africa and Latin America provide key insight into the Iranian government’s outlook and strategic goals.

  • The Perfect Storm
    The Perfect Storm By Mary Fanning and Alan Jones 2 November 2017 1 INTRODUCTION The next time you watch a freight train pass by a railroad crossing, or hear the evocative sounds of the mournful horns of trains passing in the night or railroad crossing warning bells as flatbed rail cars double-stacked with cargo containers roll by, or see a flatbed semi-truck hauling a cargo container down the highway, keep in mind that President Barack Hussein Obama and his administration awarded Saddam Hussein’s rogue nuclear mastermind access to Florida’s Port Canaveral cargo container terminal, a U.S. port of entry that gives Russia and states of its choice unfettered access to the entire United States. This paper will explore how several seemingly disparate factors have joined together in a confluence of acute danger, creating a perfect storm that directly threatens United States (U.S.) national security. These factors include: (i) the placement of Dr. Jafar and Gulftainer inside the wire at Port Canaveral with a 35-year container terminal lease through a secret operation known as ‘Project Pelican’; (ii) the development, production, and expansion of sales of Russia’s Club-K container missile launch system; (iii) the Jafars’ and Gulftainer’s joint venture with Russia’s state-owned Rostec, which owns 100% of the shares of Rosoboronexport, the exporter of the Club-K system; (iv) Dr. Jafar’s miniaturized nuclear weapon, known as the ‘Arab bomb’ or ‘Beach Ball’; (v) the Jafar family’s long-term relationship with Russia and the KGB/SVR and GRU intelligence services revolving around nuclear, chemical, and biological WMD; (vi) Dr.
