  • These sorts of stories by people who make a living studying the Middle East are the only reason I read this magazine. Thank you for this excellent and in-depth piece. If only more writers and members of the press were digging deeper into issues that effect our country we'd have a more informed public electing more qualified representatives.

    Please keep up the great work and if you have a newsletter please post a response letting us know how to sign up.
