The significance of the Gulf War of 1990/1991 and the resulting stationing of US troops inside the Saudi kingdom for the Arab/Islamic anti-Americanism will be analyzed. Hereby, this project seeks to investigate whether the reactions to the American presence in Saudi Arabia and the broader Arab/Islamic region are of anti-American nature or whether they reveal other proprieties. With the help of various Arabic and American sources the research question is approached and compared from boAnti-AmericanismSaudi ArabiaUnited StatesRelationsSaudi ArabiaSaudi ArabiaRelationsUnited StatesElectronic books.Anti-Americanism909.04927Schmid Michael124307MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910463114003321Did Desert Shield lead to desert hate2138491UNINA
