How and Why the Allies Differ over the Gulf

As in the Arab-Israeli conflict, it is too simple to speak of ‘US’ and ‘European’ positions on the Gulf as if the US and Europe were unitary actors. In many cases, particularly on Iraq, there is more that unites the allies than divides them, and the divisions that do exist are sometimes as much among Europeans or Americans, as between the US and its allies. Nonetheless, there are profound US-European differences over important issues concerning the Gulf. It is impossible to assess the prospects for more unified transatlantic policies without understanding the content and sources of this divergence.
