Book Israeli Arms Transfers to Sub Saharan Africa

Download or read book Israeli Arms Transfers to Sub Saharan Africa written by Siemon T. Wezeman and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Israel is one of a range of smaller suppliers of major weapons and other military equipment to sub-Saharan Africa. It has long sold or given weapons to a host of developing countries, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, and the deals are often accompanied by serving or retired Israeli military personnel and Israeli civilian contractors as instructors. Although Israeli arms exports, especially of major weapons, to sub-Saharan Africa are limited, Israeli weapons, brokers and instructors are likely to sometimes have a more significant impact than mere numbers of supplied weapons imply. While exports of major weapons from Israel are well documented, information on other weapons and equipment, on training and on motivations for and restraints on exports is very much based on occasional statements from officials or companies and on media reports. Since the United Nations Register of Conventional Arms (UNROCA) became operational in 1993, Israel has submitted data on exports of major arms every year. The Israeli reports have been of a relatively high standard as they include details about the actual type and designation of equipment. While many of the larger transfers reported by Israel to UNROCA are also well documented in other open sources, UNROCA reporting has often revealed smaller transfers, specially to African states such as Chad and Uganda. However, Israel has not included background information about the import and export of small arms and light weapons (SALW), as invited by the UN General Assembly since December 2003. In 2010 the UN Secretary-General requested for countries to give their view on the continuing operation of UNROCA and the possible inclusion of SALW as a separate reporting category. Israel was one of the few states that responded, providing a note explaining that it 'views the illicit trade in SALW, in all its aspects, and their use by unauthorized recipients, including terrorists, as an imminent threat to security and stability, which effects and harms civilian population and societies'. However, the note remained non-committal on the need to include SALW in UNROCA. The Israeli Government is also one of the few Western countries that do not publish a regular national report on arms exports. This SIPRI Background Paper aims to give an overview of Israeli arms exports to sub-Saharan Africa during the period 2006-10.

Book Lyndon B  Johnson and the Politics of Arms Sales to Israel

Download or read book Lyndon B Johnson and the Politics of Arms Sales to Israel written by Abraham Ben-Zvi and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2004-02-05 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lyndon B. Johnson and the Politics of Arms Sales to Israel seeks to reconstruct and elucidate the processes behind the decisions made by the Johnson Administration during the years 1965-68 to sell Israel M-48 tanks, A-4 Skyhawk planes and F-4 Phantom planes. This examination is based on a distinction between three factions which competed for influence within Washington's high-policy elite: the traditionalists (whose major representative was Secretary of State Dean Rusk); the pragmatists (whose most outspoken representative was Robert Komer of the National Security Council); and the domestically oriented policymakers (the central decision-maker who quintessentially exemplifies this category being President Johnson). This book is a sequel to: John F. Kennedy and the Politics of Arms Sales to Israel, which examined the first arms deal between the US and Israel.

Book The Weapon Wizards

Download or read book The Weapon Wizards written by Yaakov Katz and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2017-01-31 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A lively account of Israel's evolving military prowess...if The Weapon Wizards were a novel, it would be one written by Horatio Alger; if it were a biblical allegory, it would be the story of David and Goliath." —The New York Times Book Review From drones to satellites, missile defense systems to cyber warfare, Israel is leading the world when it comes to new technology being deployed on the modern battlefield. The Weapon Wizards shows how this tiny nation of 8 million learned to adapt to the changes in warfare and in the defense industry and become the new prototype of a 21st century superpower, not in size, but rather in innovation and efficiency—and as a result of its long war experience. Sitting on the front lines of how wars are fought in the 21st century, Israel has developed in its arms trade new weapons and retrofitted old ones so they remain effective, relevant, and deadly on a constantly-changing battlefield. While other countries begin to prepare for these challenges, they are looking to Israel—and specifically its weapons—for guidance. Israel is, in effect, a laboratory for the rest of the world. How did Israel do it? And what are the military and geopolitical implications of these developments? These are some of the key questions Yaakov Katz and Amir Bohbot address. Drawing on a vast amount of research, and unparalleled access to the Israeli defense establishment, this book is a report directly from the front lines.

Book Transfer of Arms  Leverage  and Peace in the Middle East

Download or read book Transfer of Arms Leverage and Peace in the Middle East written by Nitza Nachmias and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1988-11-18 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Israel has been primarily dependent on U.S. arms for its national security since 1968, supplying military aid has not conferred the degree of policy leverage anticipated by the United States. This study is the first to analyze the reasons why the tactics of transferring or withholding arms have failed to achieve U.S. foreign policy goals in the Middle East. Providing a thorough, up-to-date reexamination of the U.S.-Israeli relationship, Nachmias gives a comprehensive account of U.S. Middle East policy from 1968 to 1988 and explores the international and regional dilemmas that have undercut U.S. policy initiatives for peace. Nachmias argues that the use of military aid to achieve foreign policy goals ignores the regional conditions that control Middle East politics and does little to advance the peace process or enhance U.S. power in the region. To promote these objectives, she suggests alternative approaches, including the creation of a coherent and consistent U.S. policy for the region and a stronger and more innovative diplomatic role. One of the few analyses to consider international policy questions in terms of leverage between client and patron states, Nachmias's work significantly enlarges our understanding of the complex forces that will continue to shape the Middle East situation in the coming decades. Her book will be a valuable resource for scholars, officials, and students specializing in U.S. politics and foreign policy and Middle East studies.
