SUMMARY

There is no doubt that the Middle East can present significant potential threats to the West. The author of this monograph examines these threats in order to put them into perspective to distinguish between "crying wolf' and "crying havoc." After thorough analysis, he contends that the problems caused by narcotics and organized crime, immigration, terrorism, and weapons of mass destruction do not as yet require draconian action by the Western nations. However, he asserts that if the threats of Middle Eastern terrorism and proliferation were to be combined into super-terrorism, the result would create a new form of asymmetric warfare for which the West is singularly ill-prepared.Army War Coll Strategic Studies Inst Carlisle Barracks PA is the author of 'Transnational Threats from the Middle East : Crying Wolf or Crying Havoc?', published 1999 under ISBN 9781423544029 and ISBN 1423544021.
