Saudi Arabia and the New Strategic Landscape [Paperback]

Joshua Teitelbaum evaluates Saudi foreign policy in the Persian Gulf and in the Arab-Israeli peace process and provides a shrewd assessment of the Saudi-U.S. relationship. He debunks the traditional view of Saudi foreign policy that emphasizes the Saudi concern with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and explains how the true concern of Arabia's rulers is the ideological battle that has been opened up by Iran's push into Arab affairs.Joshua Teitelbaum is a visiting fellow at the Hoover Institution and a fellow at the Dayan Center for Middle Eastern Studies, Tel Aviv University.
