The Middle East is a good illustration of just how different the visions of movements are on a geo-strategic level. By analyzing both Russian and American foreign policy with regards to four States of the region, Afghanistan, Iraq, Saudi Arabia and Iran, this chapter measures the influence of neoconservative and neo-Eurasians thinking and tests the ideological and destabilizing character of their understanding of this region. Afghanistan evokes the geopolitical "Great Game" of the 19th century between Great Britain and Russia, and also that of the 20th century between the Americans and the Soviets. The case of Iraq is more an illustration of neoconservative inspired American foreign policy of the 1990s, which led to a war in 2003, than a result of its geopolitical position as such. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is the birthplace of Wahhabism, a conservative reform movement of Islam that has become almost synonymous with 'international terrorism' for movements.
