Duality Of Us Foreign Policy Towards The Middle East After The Repercussions Of 9/11 Dissertation Submitted To The Department Of Letters And English In Partial Fulfillment Of The Requirements For The Master’s Degree
Résumé: Abstract The foreign policy of the United States is the policy by which the United States deals with foreign countries. The U.S. is still highly influential in the world as the only superpower. The main goal of the foreign policy of the United States is to create a secure and democratic world for the American people and international community. This study undertakes to examine the character of duality in U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East after the events of September 11, 2001. Scholars argue that there is a clear discrepancy between professed U.S. values and its actions; that justice, self-determination and human rights are victims of national interests; that “might makes right” is what matters in U.S. foreign policy. This work seeks to investigate whether U.S. foreign policy towards the Middle East after 9/11 was a double standard. The thesis is based on two assumptions; the U.S. preaches high standards and acts in double standards and the U.S pretends to export its ideals but basically seeks to rule in supreme so as to preserve the privileges gained after the collapse of the USSR. In an attempt to uncover the reasons behind the duplicitous nature of U.S. foreign policy, we took Iraq and Afghanistan as case studies. The work uses these two case studies to contrast the U.S. democracy agenda with its real interests. Further, this work utilizes the historical research approach so as to provide a thorough as well as insightful analysis to our claim. One of the main findings of this research is that, the claims presented by the Bush Administration to launch wars on Afghanistan and Iraq proved to be illusory. The military and foreign policies of the United States have indeed bread hatred. The only way for America to get back the positive image or at least to reduce the negative one and get the rest of the world to respect its foreign policy would be to do away with its duality, its self-serving attitude, engage and encourage more dialogues, stand on the same distance of all parties -Muslims and Jews- curb the use of force and believe in a world to be shared with others not to be dominated.
