The purpose of this article is to describe, analyze, and explain the orientations of a potential Arab elite toward the United States and the Soviet Union. Arabs educated in American universities were sampled before and after the 1967 Arab-Israeli War. Their attitudes toward the two superpowers were measured on six international issues ranging from world tension in general to colonialism and economic aid to poor nations. The images of the Soviet Union and the United States were found to be sharper after 1967 than before. The variance in the subjects' attitudes toward the superpowers was more a function of their leanings toward socialism and democracy before 1967. After 1967 such variance was more a function of their nationalist dispositions.
