The Gulf War was the logical out come of this development.

From an on-line University posting: "Dr. Michael A. Palmer is a professor of history with the Program in Maritime Studies at East Carolina University. Professor Palmer earned his Ph.D. from Temple University in 1981 where he studied under the late Russell F. Weigley. His research and teaching interests include maritime, military, and diplomatic history, the founding of the American republic, and involvement of the United States in the Middle East since the eighteenth century. ...
