Nowhere is the specter of war more probable than in the volatile Middle East.  It’s a dangerous place when policymakers are, as Mikhail Gorbachev says, “confused and at a loss.” Conflicts that start small in one part of the world can quickly spread to all parts of the world.  In effect, no place is safe!
