This selective bibliography, with brief annotations, is intended to assist debaters in identifying resources and references on the national debate topic. It lists citations to journal articles, books, congressional publications, legal cases, and websites. The bibliography is divided into three broad sections: basic concepts and definitions, general overviews, and specific cases.

Middle East

Articles

Bacher, Ariel. “JCPOA: Implications and Effects on Our Foreign Military Sales Program.” Public Contract Law Journal 46, no. 4 (Summer 2017): 873-893. The author argues that Israel’s ability to engage in a preemptive strike against potential Iranian nuclear weapon development, possibly facilitated by Iran’s 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), is a military and foreign policy benefit to the United States, made possible primarily through Israeli acquisition of U.S. weapons through the Foreign Military Sales (FMS) program. The author contends that the Arms Export Control Act (AECA) should be amended, to ensure that Israel’s access to the FMS program is not curtailed on grounds that such a preemptive attack might not be considered “legitimate self-defense” under the current AECA statute.

Dewan, Angela. Graphics by Henrik Petterson. “These Are the Countries Still Selling Arms to Saudi Arabia.” CNN, Nov. 23, 2018. Available at https://www.cnn.com/2018/11/22/middleeast/arms-exports-saudi-arabia-intl/index.html. This article provides statistics on the countries selling arms to Saudi Arabia. The United Kingdom, the second-largest supplier to Saudi Arabia, decreased its deliveries by almost 50% from 2016 to 2017, while the U.S. nearly doubled its exports.

Gilsinan, Kathy. “Why the U.S Can’t Quit Saudi Arabia.” The Atlantic, Oct. 16, 2018. Available at https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2018/10/jamal-khashoggi- american-saudi-counterterrorism-relationship/573148/. The author traces the history of U.S.-Saudi relations with a focus on recent events. She examines the tensions of a relationship described as founded on shared interests, but not shared values.

“The Global Arms Trade: Masters of War.” The Economist 428, no. 9105, Aug. 18, 2018: 47-48. The article reports that the international arms market is volatile, with total demand growing, more sellers, and a buyer’s market for developing nations. It contends that U.S. arms-export policy delicately balances economic and geopolitical opportunity against preventing the transfer of technologies that could destabilize war zones or be used against the United States—a strategy some commentators argue can be counter-productive.

Harper, Jon. “Middle East Arms Imports Expected to Remain Robust.” National Defense 102, no. 775 (June 2018): 24-26. Available at http://www.nationaldefensemagazine.org/articles/2018/6/8/middle-east-arms- imports-expected-to-remain-robust. The author surveys military sales orders by multiple countries in the Middle East, including defensive systems such as aircraft and missile defense, as well as offensive technology such as fighter jets, transport aircraft, helicopters, airborne platforms for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, and drones. The article observes that some countries in the Middle East have had little trouble finding new arms sources when long-time suppliers have reduced or ended their sales.

Osborne, Tony. “UAE Leaning to Russia Could be Price of U.S. Arms Sale Inaction.” Aviation Week & Space Technology, Feb. 27, 2017. The author depicts the United Arab Emirates (UAE) as a key U.S. and NATO ally in the Persian Gulf and Middle East, but reports that the United States’ refusal to let the UAE (and other Gulf states) acquire advanced combat aircraft, such as the U.S. F-35 fighter jet, has pushed the UAE to partner with Russia to develop new fighter aircraft for the 2020s.

Vittori, Jodi. “American Weapons in the Wrong Hands.” Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, Feb. 19, 2019. Available at https://carnegieendowment.org/2019/02/19/american-weapons-in-wrong-hands-pub-78408. The article discusses arms purchases by Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. It articulates reasons the United States should conduct a full-scale review of U.S. Army sales to the Gulf region and provides examples of Gulf States diverting U.S. arms. It calls for the Department of Defense, the Department of State, and the Department of Commerce to do a better job monitoring arms sales.

The authors observe that although the U.S. is the world’s leader in possessing and using armed drones, other nations are eager for the technology, either by developing internal capacities, or, in the cases of Pakistan, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE), by buying them. The authors argue that the U.S. has a critical opportunity and a unique responsibility to shape worldwide norms for the sale of armed drones. They urge that the U.S. should adopt a strict export control policy.
