Counter-terrorism cooperation
Article Abstract:
The Gulf states have become partners of the United States against Al Qaeda after the September 11 terrorist attacks and the start of Iraq war in 2003, due to the threat posed to them by militants. The crackdown of militants has been possible with an increased anti-terrorism assistance by the U.S. to almost all of the Gulf States.
