The Kingdom of Jordan: The Eye of the Hurricane in a Turbulent Middle East

The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, situated not only physically at the center of the world has also been the center of some of its most significant moments. These involved the Kingdom’s role in supporting peace between Israel and Egypt alongside former President and Humanitarian Jimmy Carter. Carter, demonized for his Southern style and failures in the Middle East, especially during the Iran Hostage Crisis, engineered one of its greatest diplomatic feats ever: Peace between ancient enemies, Israel and Egypt. Their long-standing vendetta which had real consequences for centuries nearly moved the modern world to the brink of World War 3. In stepped President Carter, Anwar Sadat, Menachem Begin and eventually, the Royal Family of Jordan and all that changed. In this paper I would like to explore the personalities, roles and conditions that brought them together, re-celebrate their achievements, and challenge the world to model their characters and repeat their successes. Once again or even still, Israel is the pearl in the Middle Eastern oyster, and a weary world is eager move on. It is my hope my research will give us an inkling where to begin a process that could once again prevent a Global Conflict.

Iraq and the mutual accumulation strategy between the international and regional powers: The United States of America and Iran are a model

The rules of (mutual accumulation strategy) overshadow the history of the crisis relations between the United States of America and Iran four decades ago, and if we recall that, we will notice several collision joints between the two parties, starting with the hostage crisis of the American embassy in Iran from 4/11/1979 to 20 / 1/1981 AD, to the "Marines" attempt to storm this embassy in an operation called "Eagle Claw" on 4/24/1980 AD, to the tanker war in the eighties of the last century, to the exchange of downing drones in 2019, and finally what happened between the United States The United States and Iran from the moment targeting (Qassem Soleimani), commander of the "Quds Force" on 1/3/2020, until the Iranian missile response and targeting of the American forces in the two "Ain al-Assad" bases in Anbar province, and the "Harir" base in Arbil province on 1/8/ 2020 AD, all of this falls within the context of (mutual accumulation strategy) between the two parties, without going to a comprehensive confrontation through war or a knockout, because the logic of war or comprehensive confrontation is outside the political and military mindsets of the two parties, and the meaning of all of this is that turmoil forms the basis of the relationship between the states The The United States and Iran, because the turmoil and the limited clash with it through mutual strikes, do not necessarily lead to an open clash.

Iran Hostage Crisis: A Sphere Full of Distrust and Failure

There is no doubt that Iran hostage crisis has left quite a profound scar in U.S. history. It also signaled the inability of U.S. government, through President Jimmy Carter, to solve the problem that U.S. faced in the past. This paper delves into the brief history of the diplomatic crisis that happened between U.S. and Iran, also it stressed on how Carter tried to engage Iran in several warm negotiations, including the so-called ‘failed’ mission, which were mostly greeted by refusal from Iran itself

Captivity

Bishop Juan Luis Cipriana leads the negotiations with Nestor Cerpa and the MRTA occupiers of the Japanese ambassador’s residence; Marco Miyashiro and Luis Giampietri cope with captivity inside the residence. Two MRTA women, Herma Luz Melendez, aka La Gringa, and Luzdina Villoslada, experience abuses by the other MRTA men. Alberto Fujimori promises to resolve the hostage crisis peacefully, but Cerpa has reason to believe otherwise.
