More References For Arab Views

Just to add more to the current views of Arab countries on Iran's nuclear program the article "The Odd Couple Iran and Qatar: Two regional misfits" talks about Qatar who for 30 years has had mutual tolerance with Iran ("The Odd Couple Iran and Qatar: Two regional misfits", 2012), is now faced with an uncertain relationship. For a long time Qatar has been against sanctions on Iran and instead has urged affording diplomacy enough time to guarantee the achievement of a peaceful solution("The Odd Couple Iran and Qatar: Two regional misfits", 2012). However, this stance has recently changed and instead has voted in favor of harsher restrictions in 2007 because of Western momentum ("The Odd Couple Iran and Qatar: Two regional misfits", 2012). While Qatar wants to have a good relationship with Iran it will not favor it in global issues ("The Odd Couple Iran and Qatar: Two regional misfits", 2012). This article shows the relationship between one of Iran's supposedly closest ally. It also, represent the global stance that is being taken against Iran's nuclear program.

Another article though not as current that represents specific Arab nations' views on Iran's nuclear program is Gulf-Iran. While it says most Arab nations view Iran's ambitions as a threat ("Gulf-Iran", 2011), the article lists off the policies each Arab nation would like to enact to lessen the tensions and why each nation feels threatened from a nuclear Iran. It also states the deterioration that has occurred between the Arab nations and Iran and how they are each accusing each other of trying to destabilize Arab regimes("Gulf-Iran", 2011). It gives specific assassination plots that each country has accused each other of and the specific relationship of Saudi Arabia and Iran that is not covered in the article.

The last article Arab League head interviewed on Iran's nuclear programme, other issues gives an overview of the Arab League's joint view on Iran's nuclear development. It states that there needs to be a peaceful solution that will most likely occur with negotiations ("Arab League head interviewed on Iran's nuclear :programme, other issues", 2008). The interview also points out its wish to have no nuclear weapons in the Middle East and still maintains that nuclear weapons are not the intent of Iran ("Arab League head interviewed on Iran's nuclear :programme, other issues", 2008). It also helps clarifies Middle Eastern organization's stances and also provides actual talks with Iran. The article also gives more information on deterioration relationships and fully discusses the current relationship with most major Arab Nations and Iran.
