Abstract :
The aim of this paper is to discuss the affects of the US occupation of Iraq on the
Arab world and on the United States. It will try to answer several questions including:
will the failure of the US mean the continuation of conflict in Iraq. Will Iraq be left in a
chaotic situation? How other Arab and non Arab-neighboring states will behave under
the continuation of conflict in Iraq and in the possible chaos if the US decided to call its
mission off in Iraq? What are the implications of failure on the US world image? Will
the US succeed in bringing democracy and stability to Iraq and present it as model to
the Arab world. What are the responses from the rest of the Arab World to the making
of the New Iraq? More importantly, the paper will concentrate on the future security
arrangement of the US namely the future relationship between the Arab States and the
U.S. in terms of the security arrangement and scenarios of post-war Iraq and regional
security and how this will influence Arab -US relations. These are so many important
questions the paper will try to tackle.
