Abstract

U.S foreign policy interests in the Middle East and Persian Gulf region has always had three components: economy, SECURITY and politics. It is not overstated to stress the centrality of energy resources in the economic sector as a predominant factor. In this context, securing access to energy and the flow of oil become vital for world economic prosperity. The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, added more impetus to the U.S SECURITY issues in the Persian Gulf. President Bush’s doctrine of “preemptive WAR” and “the global WAR on terror” placed the Persian Gulf region at the heart of his post-9/11 strategic vision. The Bush administration used the terrorist attacks on New York and Washington as a great opportunity to revamp the regional SECURITY by undertaking some drastic measures. The invasion of Iraq in March 2003, the idea of regime change in IRAN as well as other American Neocons’ grandiose plans about the necessity to reshape the “Greater Middle East”, made governments in the region nervous. In addition, by giving prominence to the “security question” over all other considerations, the US policy plunged the region deeper into uncertainty.Washington has systematically tried, and to a large extent succeeded, to securitize the inter-state relations in the region. This approach combined with the NATO plan to further its regional partnership, made any significant rapprochement among the Persian Gulf states on the issue of SECURITY almost impossible. For these reasons, a collective regionally crafted SECURITY ARRANGEMENT that includes littoral states of IRAN, Iraq the countries of Persian Gulf Cooperation Council would be unattainable in a foreseeable future.
