Tahtinen argues that, in the absence of peace in the Middle East, the military preparedness of Israel and the Arab states will continue to move to ever higher levels of technical sophistication, eventually including nuclear arms. The authors examine various aspects of this last, worst imaginable case. They consider the nuclear potential of the warring states, the kinds of delivery sys- tems available to those countries, and the war situations with most potential for nuclear engagement. In addition, Pranger and Tahtinen suggest a four-part plan for an American response to nuclear war in the Middle East. The latter suggestion is of con- siderable importance, since such a conflict could upset the nuclear balance between the superpowers, with possibly disas- trous results for world peace. Robert J. Pranger is director of foreign and defense policy studies at the American Enterprise Institute and was formerly deputy assistant secretary of defense. He is the author of a num- ber of books and articles dealing with political theory, foreign and defense policy, and the Middle East, notably American Policy for Peace in the Middle East 1969-1971, which presents a realistic peace plan that remains applicable today. Dale R. Tahtinen is assistant director of foreign and defense policy studies at the American Enterprise Institute. Formerly he was assistant for research and legislative analysis to Senator Robert P. Griffin, assistant minority leader of the Senate, and prior to that, he served with the Defense Intelligence Agency.
