CORDESMAN Anthony H
Transnational threats from the Middle East: crying wolf or crying havoc? - Carlisle, Pa., USA: Strategic Studies Institute, US Army War College, 1999 - 231p.
Analyses the significant potential threats to the West posed by the Middle East. Problems examined include narcotics and organised crime; immigration; terrorism; and arms proliferation, particularly with reference to weapons of mass destruction. The author 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 ill-prepared.
