    Extractions: On September 10, 2000, the Ministry of Health (MOH), Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and subsequently, the MOH of Yemen began receiving reports of unexplained hemorrhagic fever in humans and associated animal deaths and abortions from the far western Saudi-Yemeni border region. These cases subsequently were confirmed as Rift Valley fever (RVF), the first such cases on the Arabian peninsula ( ). This report updates the findings of the ongoing investigation conducted by the Saudi Arabian MOH in collaboration with CDC and the National Institute of Virology, South Africa. As of November 1 in Saudi Arabia, 516 persons with suspected severe RVF* requiring hospitalization have been reported from primary health-care centers and hospitals ( Figure 1 Based on preliminary data from the ongoing epidemiologic investigation, 125 (76%) of 165 case-patients reported close contact with animals, especially sheep and goats, and 91 (64%) of 143 case-patients reported a history of exposure to dead, and/or aborted animals. Nearly all persons reported having had mosquito bites and that the mosquitoes were present at their place of residence. Entomologic studies found large numbers of two species of mosquitoes

    Extractions: Photographed by Burnett H. Moody There is no doubt that the past is in danger. As Saudi Arabia hurtles toward the 21st century, its cranes and bulldozers have begun to erase the andent walls, gradous buildings and picturesque quarters of other times; last year in Jiddah priceless Ottoman era homes buckled and collapsed under the assault of the wrecking cranes. And elsewhere the leveling tread of the bulldozer has begun to trample or bury even older treasures. But there is no doubt either that Saudi Arabia, increasingly aware of its historical heritage, has stepped up efforts to record and save the artifacts and architecture of its past. Recently, for example, an 11th-hour government decree saved a handsome Riyadh landmark from demolition. Furthermore, the Ministry of Education's Department of Antiquities and Museums has announced its intention to construct a permanent $150 million National Museum in Riyadh plus 14 regional museums - some in such historic places as Mada'in Salih and Najran, others in provindal centers. Behind that announcement - and the opening of the Museum of Archeology and Ethnography - is the department's comprehensive plan to find and document the kingdom's archeological sites and provide data for the numerous expeditions and meticulous study needed to cover a country as large as Western Europe - and in which man has lived for millennia.

    http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/binladen/who/family.html
    
    Extractions: Today one of the biggest construction groups in the kingdom [of Saudi Arabia] and the Middle East, the "bin Laden empire" traces its origins to Sheik Mohammed bin Laden, a native of the Chafeite (Sunni) Hadramout who emigrated [from South Yemen] to Saudi Arabia at the beginning of the century. The beginnings of his activity are shrouded in mystery. It is said that, having satisfied King Abdul Aziz with construction work on the royal palace, Mohammed bin Laden was awarded a much more prestigious contract: the renovation of Mecca. Whatever the actual circumstances, it is a fact that the Saudi royal family gave the bin Laden familyand groupexclusive rights to all construction of a religious nature, whether in Mecca, Medina oruntil 1967the Holy Places in Jerusalem. This enabled the bin Ladens to establish an industrial and financial empire which now extends far beyond religious construction projects. The relationship between the bin Ladens and the Saudi royal family is quite exceptional in that it not simply one of business ties: it is also a relationship of trust, of friendship and of shared secrets. This is particularly the case with regard to the group's present-day leaders and the Soudairi clan.

    Extractions: The Iraqi Shiites Juan Cole But the Bush administration badly neglected the history of the group they wanted to claim as their new ally. Who are the Iraqi Shiites? And how likely are they to support democracy or U.S. goals in the region? To address these questions, we will first need some background. Anti-Communism and the Pillars of U.S. Policy From 1970 until the end of the Cold War, U.S. policy in the Middle East was based on three principles and two key alliances. The principles included fighting against Communist and other radical anti-American influences; supporting conservative religious and authoritarian political elites; and ensuring access to Middle Eastern petroleum supplies. The two principal allies were Israel and Saudi Arabia. September 11 and the Iraq Option It is a plan. And like other ambitious plans it makes many assumptions. But perhaps the largest is that the Iraqi Shiites are plausible allies.

It's free! Save it. Reviewed by Khalil Dokhanchi The end of the Cold War and the resulting economic and military developments have "produced a new independence for some southern states," or what Murden calls "emerging regional powers" (p. xv). The author examines the rise of three such "powers": Iran, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia in the Middle East, particularly their role in the Persian Gulf between 1988-91. Murden argues that growing capabilities enable an emergent power to "broaden its interests in international regimes" (p. 11) In addition, emergent regional powers "seek more lasting forms of power, using the growing capabilities available to them" in the Basic and Higher regimes (p. xvii) Basic regimes "relate to the formation of an authoritative state," whereas Higher regimes "seek to summarize the multiplicity of international norms, rule and institutions that set the conditions for interaction, and that regulate inter-state behavior" (p. xvii).

Save it. AbuKhalil, As'ad. The Battle for Saudi Arabia: Royalty, Fundamentalism, and Global Power. New York, NY: Seven Stories Press, 2004. Paper $9.95. This is an excellent introductory book on Saudi Arabia. It is well researched and documented. Written in a lucid style, the book traces the history leading to the establishment of the Saudi State. Essential to the understanding of current Saudi political development is knowledge about the relationship between Wahhabiyyah and the House of Saud. This "marriage of convenience" between the two gave legitimacy and stability to the Saudi State. However, those came at a high price in the form of oppression of women and, more generally, of human rights abuses. This formula and the propagation of the faith on a global scale met no resistance from the U.S. government so long the Saudis were allied with them against communism and Arab nationalism.

    Extractions: Volume 7, No. 3 - September 2003 SAUDI ARABIA: A BRIEF GUIDE TO ITS POLITICS AND PROBLEMS By Nimrod Raphaeli This article examines the familial structure of the Saudi ruling oligarchy and considers this regime’s performance given the economic and demographic challenges it faces. Oligarchy is a form of government where a few rule the many. In Saudi Arabia, the few are predominantly royal male princes who are all descended from the founder of the modern Saudi kin gdom, King Abd al-Aziz who, upon his death in 1953, left behind 44 sons (and an uncounted number of daughters) by 17 wives. Today, Saudi Arabia’s ruling structure is capped by a unique, almost unprecedented, form of oligarchy, whose members are connected through a bloodline to Saudi Arabia's polygamous founder. The princes have treated the country's wealth of oil and minerals as their personal domain and made themselves famous for their extravagant life style. Some princes have accumulated enormous personal wealth; with King Fahd bin Abd al-Aziz, the reigning monarch, topping the list with a personal fortune estimated at $20 billion.(1) This particular system has important implications for Saudi society, politics, and policies. It is also a central consideration for pondering any future reform or development in the country.

For a printable, pdf version of the brief, click here The Gulf region is beset by historical rivalries, competition for regional influence, territorial disputes and explosive conflicts. These factors create a dangerous strategic environment in which many key regional actors look to defend their national interests by pursuing weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and ballistic missiles. This regional attraction to WMD poses serious problems for U.S. policymakers. It represents a clear and present danger to U.S. interests, troops and allies in a region with vital oil and gas deposits, a pivotal geographic location and a volatile recent history. Iraq is currently the center of attention in Washington and at the United Nations (UN) because of the combination of Saddam Hussein's determined efforts to acquire WMD and the disarmament obligations imposed on Iraq by the Security Council in 1991 and thereafter. In contrast, Iran's WMD development programs remain largely unknown and unchecked. They were the main subject of a recent Congressional Staff Briefing organized by the Atlantic Council of the United States, the Middle East Institute, the Middle East Policy Council and the Stanley Foundation.

    Extractions: HOME DV NEWS SERVICE ARCHIVE SUBMISSIONS/CONTACT ... ABOUT DV Uncertainty in Saudi Arabia by Matthew Riemer May 29, 2003 T he leadership in Saudi Arabia is in danger and, in fact, has been for some time. The Arabian Peninsula, the heart and soul of the Islamic world since its genesis 1400 years ago, has now become the shelter for one of the Middle East's most austere and traditional governments and societies. And it is because of this that the opaque administration of an ailing King Fahd and his ostensible, yet highly contested, successor, Crown Prince Abdullah, is coming under extreme pressure from both without and within. For the last several months, factions within Washington's intellectual and foreign policy circles have been calling for the reevaluation of the United States' relationship with the desert monarchy. Many opine that the negative aspects of the existing regime (the Kingdom's perceived social repression and complicity with terrorists) now outweigh the positive ones (Saudi Arabia contains the largest quantities of the most crucial resource on the planet: oil). Usually, most critics begin with the fact that 15 of the 19 hijackers involved in the September 11th attacks were Saudi nationals. They then point to a political system (or lack thereof) and society that most Westerners find a bit repressive, if not backward and wholly unacceptable one which nurtures and exports terrorism. When combined with the geopolitical significance of Saudi oil reserves, the country becomes one over which Washington can't help but exert a certain amount of control and, if need be, critics maintain, its desires for the Kingdom can legitimately be realized through force or "regime change."

It did, however, buy long-range CSS-2 ballistic missiles from China in 1988. More recently, Saudi officials have discussed the procurement of new Pakistani intermediate-range missiles capable of carrying nuclear warheads. Some concern remains that Saudi Arabia, like its neighbors, may be seeking to acquire nuclear weapons, apparently by purchase rather than indigenous development. While there is no direct evidence that Saudi Arabia has chosen a nuclear option, the Saudis have in place a foundation for building a nuclear deterrent.

     Extractions: After the initial Western euphoria at the dissolution of the Soviet Empire, the dangers of uncertainty quickly became clear. The enemy of the Cold War had been vanquished, destroyed not from outside, but from within, by its own internal contradictions. But there was a new enemy. It took different but often related forms. Rampant nationalism became rife, leading to ethnic conflict not only between newly independent states but also within them. In the 1993 (1413/14 AH) elections in Russia, the winner of the largest number of seats in the Russian parliament was an overt fascist. Outside the old Soviet Union, but still within the old Communist sphere of influence, the now former state of Yugoslavia tore itself apart, and introduced a new and profoundly sinister euphemism into common journalistic parlance - ethnic cleansing. Whole populations of territory coveted by one side or the other were, if lucky, given a choice; leave or die. Those, less lucky, were simply killed. Bosnian Muslims found that their erstwhile neighbors had become their persecutors. Muslim women were systematically raped by nominally Christian Serbs. As the civil war continued, all parties, Serbs, Croats and Muslims, were accused of war crimes. The horrors of the Second World War, which many Europeans had complacently thought could never be repeated on European soil, were taking place once again in the heartland of Europe and, despite strenuous diplomatic efforts and stringent economic sanctions against the Serbs, the international community proved incapable of preventing the atrocities.
