Scientific Study from the year 2009 in the subject Politics - Topic: Peace and Conflict, Security, University of Miami (International Security Studies), course: The Emergence and Impacts of Modern Terrorism, language: English, abstract: As the US and the Western world accused the governments of Libya, Iran, Syria, Iraq... etc as potential sponsors of terrorism in the Middle East and North Africa, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia was not mentioned, despite several of its charity organizations are supporting the radicals under the cover of humanitarian assistance. Saudi Arabian officials show down has tried to break the chains of terrorism and condemned Al-Qaeda's actions against the United States. The alleged Al Qaeda attacks of November 9, 2001, have dramatically distorted the political environment between the Muslim and the Western world. In the Muslim world, religion, politics, and culture are intertwined in complicated ways. The implications of jihadists' activities in the Middle East/Persian Gulf region are much worrying. The war in Iraq has inflamed the violent acts that have dramatically increased. Today, the time to access to the technologies for the production of chemical weapons is likely to become easy. The development of "micro reactors," or machines, only a bit larger than an average desktop computer, that are designed for pharmaceutical industries will allow chemical companies to produce chemicals in smaller quantities on short order. After the dramatic 9/11 tragedy, the Bush Administration came out along with a bundle of strategies and advocated to democratize the Arab world. The main strategy and rationale behind the US government security interest in promoting freedom and democracy is to reduce anti-American terrorism. According to their calculus, the more democracy promoted in the Middle East the less terrorist attack on the US targets take place. Miami Beach, Florida October 30, 2009
