DESCRIPTION:Event @ the World Affairs Council, 4/26  What: “Thicker than Oil: 
 America’s Uneasy Partnership with Saudi Arabia”  Who: Rachel Bronson, 
 Senior Fellow and Director, Middle East and Gulf Studies, Council on 
 Foreign Relations  Event: For fifty-five years, the United States and Saudi 
 Arabia were solid partners, and Rachel Bronson argues that this 
 relationship was never simply about "oil for security." Saudi Arabia's 
 geographic location and religiously motivated foreign policy figured 
 prominently in America’s Cold War efforts to defeat communism, but 
 decisions made during that period left behind a legacy that today enflames 
 the Middle East. In Thicker than Oil, Rachel Bronson reveals how the 
 countries' shared interests helped sow the seeds of today's Islamic 
 radicalism.     When: Wednesday, April 26th; Check-in: 5:30, Program: 6:00
