This was motivated at times by the people’s sense of distinction and merit and at other times by the pressures that put them in opposition. Following the Sykes-Picot Agreement, Iraq declared the Hashemite Kingdom in 1921. When Faisal I was made king, Basra launched protests registering its rejection and opposition at the wish of its prominent citizens and elders, who aspired to secede and declare Basra an independent kingdom.

  • Arab / Islamic Concept of Intelligence in the Case of Fatah Paramilitary
    ARAB / ISLAMIC CONCEPT OF INTELLIGENCE IN THE CASE OF FATAH PARAMILITARY A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Abdulaziz Abdullah Al-Asmari Department of Politics and History May 2009 Abstract This thesis provides a composite picture of the Islamic concept of intelligence traces the historical roots of Islamic intelligence activities and explains the (Ideological) relationship between the Islamic religion and the intelligence concept adhered to by modern Arab and Islamist paramilitary groups. Special reference is made to Fatah movement which has been taken up as a case study. The thesis shows that the two main sources of Islam (the Quran and the Sunnah) provided the regulative codes of practice towards intelligence activities. Prophet Muhammad‘s intelligence tradition offers the ideal model that the Arab / Islamic paramilitary groups emulate. Referring to the Islamic roots, the research seeks to point out that the hallmarks of the Islamic intelligence concept which emerged from the Quran and Prophet Mohammed‘s tradition, became the framework that accommodated ‗Arab / Islamic modern paramilitary intelligence activities‘, such as Fatah‘s. The thesis uses the modern concept of the intelligence to identify the ancient activities and compares data process within the intelligence cycle. The range of activities is broad: clandestine collection, counterintelligence, analysis and dissemination, and covert action. It also introduces the Arab intelligence tradecraft such as the uses of safe houses, methods of communication, secrecy and concealments...etc. This thesis also aims to correct the perception that Arab intelligence concept developed after the emergence and expansion of the Islamic Empire. i Acknowledgements Foremost, I would like to gratefully thank my supervisor Dr.

  • Iraq: Post-War Challenges and U.S. Responses, 1991-1998
    98-386 F CRS Report for Congress Received through the CRS Web Iraq: Post-War Challenges and U.S. Responses, 1991-1998 Updated March 31, 1999 Alfred B. Prados Specialist in Middle East Affairs Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division Congressional Research Service The Library of Congress ABSTRACT This CRS report reviews cease-fire terms that followed the Gulf war in early 1991; highlights provisions that Iraq has tended to violate; describes ensuing confrontations between the United States and Iraq since 1991, together with international reactions; and summarizes related points of congressional interest. The report is designed as a source of ready reference for congressional offices interested in previous instances of use of force by the United States against Iraq after the Gulf war. The report will be updated if similar confrontations continue on a large scale. Related CRS products are IB92117, Iraqi Compliance with Cease-Fire Terms, by Kenneth Katzman, updated regularly; IB94049, Iraq-U.S. Confrontation, 1997- 1999, by Alfred B. Prados and Kenneth Katzman, which describes the most recent and on- going confrontations. Iraq: Post-War Challenges and U.S. Responses, 1991-1998 Summary Iraq has not fully complied with terms of the cease-fire agreements that followed the expulsion of Iraqi forces from Kuwait in early 1991. Several Iraqi violations of cease-fire provisions have resulted in brief military confrontations between Iraq and the United States, supported in some cases by other allied forces. Iraqi violations prompting a U.S. military response have fallen into four general categories: obstruction of U.N. weapons inspection teams, involvement in international terrorist acts, failure to abide by air exclusion zones imposed by the allies over parts of Iraq, and troop movements that could threaten Kuwait or internal targets of repression by the Iraqi Government.
