Due to its historical setting following World War Two, the national vs. international staking of claims was framed within the escalating imperial-nationalist confrontation and the impending “end of empire”, both of which were significantly influenced by the role Israel played in this saga. The research looks at the issue of “decolonization” and the anti-colonial struggle waged under the leadership of Egypt’s President Nasser. The Suez War is analyzed as the historical event that signaled the beginning of the final chapter in the domination of the European empires in the Middle East (sub-Saharan decolonization followed beginning in the early 1960s), and the emergence of the United States as the new major Western power in the Middle East. The Suez experience highlighted a stubborn contest between the defenders of the concept of “sovereign consent” and the advocates of “International intervention”. Both the deployment of the United Nations Emergency Force (UNEF) and its termination were surrounded by controversy and legal-political wrangling. The role of UNEF and UN peacekeeping operations in general framed the development of a new concept for an emerging international human rights law and crisis management. The UNEF experience, moreover, brought into sharp relief the need for a conflict resolution component for any peace operation. International conflict management, and human rights protection are both subject to an increasing interventionist international legal regime. Consequently, the traditional concept of “sovereignty” is facing increasing challenge. By its very nature, the subject matter of this multi-dimensional research involves historical, political and international legal aspects shaping the research’s content and conclusions. The research utilizes the experience and contributions of several key participants in this pioneering peacekeeping experience. In the last chapter, recommendations are made –based on all the elements covered in the research- to suggest contributions to the evolving UN ground rules for international crisis intervention and management. iv Table of Contents Front Matter: Title Page Supervisory Committee………………………...…………………………………………………ii Abstract ................................................................................................................................... ii Table of Contents ........................................................................................................................... iv List of Figures and Maps ................................................................................................................ v Acknowledgements ....................................................................................................................... vii Dedication .................................................................................................................................. ix Epigrams ……………………………………………………………………………………… x Chapters: Chapter 1: Introduction ............................................................................................................... 1 Chapter 2: End of Empire, Anti-Colonial Nationalism, and the 1956 Suez War ...................... 20 Chapter 3: UNEF at Centre Stage: The Political and Legal Foundations ............................... 139 Chapter 4: The 1967 Middle East War and the Demise of UNEF: The Political and Legal Aspects and their Ramifications ............................................................................ 218 Chapter 5: The UNEF Experience and Post-UNEF Doctrines of Peace Operations ………. 323 Chapter 6: Conclusion ............................................................................................................. 379 Bibliography: ............................................................................................................................ 390 A.

We welcome the Israeli aggression. We welcome the battle we have long awaited. The hour has come. Our suspicions on the Israeli conspirators against our great nations have now been confirmed by our Soviet allies. The Zionists’ audacity to deploy their brigades along the glorious Syrian frontier is an open invitation to war- the long awaited battle has come. Israel doesn’t stand a chance. While our victory is inevitable, we must not underestimate our enemies either. Amongst our cabinet are decorated war heroes, renowned generals, perhaps even the most powerful men in the Middle-East. However, our place in history, our legacy, so to speak, depends entirely on the days to come, on moments to come when we face the Arab world’s greatest enemy. What is expected of you, or rather what is undoubtedly required from you is an unwavering dedication to our cause. You must be quick to think, quick to protect, quick to strike. Every second we waste, the Israelis are gaining an upper hand.

  • Gaza Reconstruction
    Report Gaza Reconstruction: Can Norway and Qatar help bring Hamas to the negotiations table? Sigurd Neubauer* Al Jazeera Centre for Studies Tel: +974-40158384 30 June 2015 [email protected] http://studies.aljazeera.n Palestinian children walk between the rubble of buildings which were destroyed during the summer war in Gaza City [AP] Abstract Norway and Qatar could help defuse future conflicts between Israel and Hamas by establishing an expert advisory group that could consult with Hamas, the Palestinian Authority and Israel on how to develop a strategic roadmap in order to prevent the all too familiar on-and-off conflict pattern between Israel and Hamas. Qatar could play an indispensable leadership role by helping to secure clean water access for Gaza’s impoverished population by coordinating with Israel to bring in urgently needed supplies while at the same time attempt to negotiate a long-term truce between the two opposing parties. Introduction An estimated 100,000 Gazans lost their homes to the latest round of hostilities between Israel and Hamas, leaving much of the coastal enclave’s infrastructure damaged. Facing an impending humanitarian catastrophe, Egyptian President Abdul Fattah al-Sisi hosted a donor conference in Cairo last October to solicit international support for the momentous task of reconstructing Gaza. Attending the Cairo summit as co-host, Norwegian Foreign Minister Borge Brende announced that the international community had pledged $5.4 billion in assistance.(1) “This is a major breakthrough, a very important

    POLICE IN PEACE OPERATIONS Erwin A. Schmidl Preface Peace operations, from their beginning in the nineteenth century and increasingly since the end of the Cold War, have included varying degrees of "police activities," ranging from supervising indigenous police agencies to actually performing law enforcement duties. Until recently, this aspect of peace operations has often been overlooked or under-appreciated in favour of the military, humanitarian, and political components of such missions. The following paper gives an overview of peace operations which involved police functions — known as "civilian police," or CIVPOL, in U.N. language. I became involved in the study of police in peace operations while I was a Senior Fellow at the U.S. Institute of Peace in 1995-96. A first conference on this subject was organised at the USIP in May 1996, followed by a series of conferences and workshops convened by Ambassador Robert B. Oakley and Colonel Michael J. Dziedzic at the National Defense University in Washington D.C. in 1996-97. This resulted in their recent volume Policing the New World Disorder: Peace Operations and Public Security, perhaps the most comprehensive contribution to our knowledge of police aspects in peace operations. The following paper is a summary of peace operations including police aspects, both by the United Nations and outside the U.N. framework. The information is based on a variety of sources, and is accurate as of July 1998. Two new missions have not been included: in April 1998, a U.N. operation was established for the Central African Republic (MINURCA, Mission des Nations Unies en République Central-Africaine) which includes 17 police officers.

    International Relations and Diplomacy, February 2017, Vol. 5, No. 2, 102-111 D doi: 10.17265/2328-2134/2017.02.004 DAVID PUBLISHING Turkish Foreign Policy in the Middle East After Arab Spring Mahmoud Khalifa Suez Canal University, Ismaïlia, Egypt Turkish policymakers’ main focus was on how to play an effective regional role in the events and issues of the Middle East, such as mediation in resolving conflicts. Consequently, the paper will attempt to address the following questions: What is the impact of Turkish foreign policy towards the Arab Spring under Justice and Development Party (AKP: Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi) rule? What is the future of Turkey in the Middle East in light of the revolutionary variables in the region? The main aim of this paper is to explore Turkish foreign policy towards the Middle East under the AKP rule particularly after the Arab Spring. The paper attempts to anticipate the future of Turkish foreign policy and Turkey’s role in the Middle East. Keywords: Turkish foreign policy, Arab Spring, Middle East Methodology Largely, the research methodology is depended on reading and analysis the Turkish foreign policy process in the future in the Middle East through an analysis of a group of alternatives, which are known as “forecasting” or “scenario analysis”. The scenario analysis is the main method of expectations, this research does not pose one image of expectations or scenarios but it provides several dynamic alternatives in the future for the Turkish foreign policy. Thus, the range of possible outcomes for each scenario can be observed through a descriptive analysis of the Turkish foreign policy, which is built on the common interest principle.

A History of U.S.-Egyptian Relations 7 Chapter 2. Foreign Policy Framework 33 Chapter 3. The Fall of Mubarak, the Rise of the SCAF 53 Chapter 4. Morsi’s Presidency 82 Chapter 5. Relations Under Sisi 115 Conclusion 145 Bibliography 160 1 Introduction Over the past several decades, the United States and Egypt have had a special relationship built around military cooperation and the pursuit of mutual interests in the Middle East. At one point, Egypt was the primary nemesis of American interests in the region as it sought to spread its own form of Arab socialism in cooperation with the Soviet Union. However, since President Anwar Sadat’s decision to sign the Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty in 1979, Egypt has proven a bulwark of the United States interests it once opposed. Specifically, those interests are peace with Israel, the continued flow of oil, American control of the region, and stability within the Middle East. In addition to ensuring these interests, the special friendship has given the United States privileges with Egypt, including the use of Egyptian airspace, expedited transit through the Suez Canal for American warships, and the basing of an extraordinary rendition program on Egyptian territory. Noticeably, the United States has developed its relationship with Egypt on military grounds, concentrating on national security rather than issues such as the economy or human rights.

  • After the Accords Anwar Sadat
    WMHSMUN XXXIV After the Accords: Anwar Sadat’s Cabinet Background Guide “Unprecedented committees. Unparalleled debate. Unmatched fun.” Letters From the Directors Dear Delegates, Welcome to WMHSMUN XXXIV! My name is Hank Hermens and I am excited to be the in-room Director for Anwar Sadat’s Cabinet. I’m a junior at the College double majoring in International Relations and History. I have done model UN since my sophomore year of high school, and since then I have become increasingly involved. I compete as part of W&M’s travel team, staff our conferences, and have served as the Director of Media for our college level conference, &MUN. Right now, I’m a member of our Conference Team, planning travel and training delegates. Outside of MUN, I play trumpet in the Wind Ensemble, do research with AidData and for a professor, looking at the influence of Islamic institutions on electoral outcomes in Tunisia. In my admittedly limited free time, I enjoy reading, running, and hanging out with my friends around campus. As members of Anwar Sadat’s cabinet, you’ll have to deal with the fallout of Egypt’s recent peace with Israel, in Egypt, the greater Middle East and North Africa, and the world. You’ll also meet economic challenges, rising national political tensions, and more. Some of the problems you come up against will be easily solved, with only short-term solutions necessary. Others will require complex, long term solutions, or risk the possibility of further crises arising. No matter what, we will favor creative, outside-the-box ideas as well as collaboration and diplomacy.
