An Egyptian perspective is taken to consider various issues of global concern that also bear on the Middle East & vice versa. Discussion opens with a look at weapons of mass destruction & terrorism. Explication centers on the fact that these issues are misperceived to have their genesis in or emanate solely from the Middle East. Attention then turns to issues of regional importance that also have relevance to the international community: the Arab-Israeli conflict, the Iraq situation, & Middle Eastern socioeconomic development. All of these issues are seen to provide a context for international relations or will be central to the Middle East's immediate future. Greater global understanding & interaction are critical to achieving a secure world & a modern & moderate Middle East. J. Zendejas
