Phantom Warriors: What Happened to the Kurds? An interview with Dr. F. Gregory Gause, III by Carlo Perri Summary: In considering contemporary Middle Eastern geopolitics, it is nearly impossible to exclude discussion of the distinct groups of people who make up its major players. Furthermore, in light of the recent turmoil that has plagued the region, one of those major players has risen to prominence and earned the general support of the West. That group is the Kurds. Serving a crucial role in the defeat of ISIS in the Levant, these people enjoyed a distanced celebrity status with America and her allies. In the many months since, however, Western media has been relatively quiet on the activities of the Kurds. It seems strange that such an indispensable group in the defeat of one of the World’s greatest threats could, virtually over-night, disappear from the Western media’s ever-vigilant radar. That leaves us with the burning question: what happened to the Kurds? Bio: Dr. F. Gregory Gause III is the incumbent John H. Lindsey ’44 Chair and Head of the Department of International Affairs at Texas A&M University’s Bush School. Prior to this, he held faculty positions at the University of Vermont, Columbia University, and Harvard University. Dr. Gause graduated from St. Joseph’s University in Philadelphia with a degree in Political Science (1980) and earned a doctorate in the same subject from Harvard University (1987). He also studied Arabic at the American University in Cairo (1982-83) and Middlebury College (1984). He has since been a Fellow for Arab and Islamic Studies at the Council on Foreign Relations in New York, a Fulbright Scholar at the American University in Kuwait, and a research fellow at the King Faisal Center for Islamic Studies and Research in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Dr. Gause focused his research on international politics in the Middle East, with a special focus on the Arabian Peninsula and Persian Gulf. He has published three books, most notably The International Relations of the Persian Gulf (Cambridge University Press, 2010). His articles have been published in Foreign Affairs, Foreign Policy, Middle East Journal, Security Studies, Washington Quarterly, and National Interest, among others, and he has testified before both the House Committee on International Relations and the Senate Foreign Affairs Committee on issues pertaining to the Persian Gulf. He continues to be a renown expert on Middle Eastern politics today.
