Abstract

According to Raytheon, the manufacturer of the Patriot system. The Patriot’s success was certainly a political one. Saudi Arabia could not possibly be on the same side of Israel if Israel counter-attacks Iraq. Because of this political complication, the US provided Israel with the defensive weapon such as the Patriot system. Thus, regardless of the Patriot’s defense effectiveness, the US was able to limit Israel’s military action to directly counter-attack Iraq. In this way, the US could keep the allied forces together, sustaining the US policy in the middle east.
