Checkmate: Iran and Assad’s Support of Al Qaeda

Syrian dictator Bashar Assad is in a gory battle with Al-Qaeda and he’s waging it with help from his Iranian allies—but they are supporting Al-Qaeda at the same time.

Why Senator McCain Hired Discredited Syrian Analyst

In the business world, a researcher like Elizabeth O’Bagy, who was fired for lying about her credentials and gave an unrealistically rosy assessment of the Syrian rebels (while doing business with those same rebels), would have trouble finding work.

Influential U.S. ‘Expert’ Inflated Numbers of Syrian Moderates

Pakistan Running Influence Operations in the U.S.

You can say that the Russians, Saudis and Chinese run influence operations in the U.S. You can also say it about Pakistan—but if you it about the Muslim Brotherhood, then you’re an “Islamophobe.” The nonsense of this is illuminated when you look at Pakistan’s massive influence campaign; a campaign that grew out of the Muslim […]

Not Too Fast: Morsi Downfall May Yet Herald Sharia for Egypt

The overthrow of Egyptian President Morsi is the biggest blow to the Muslim Brotherhood since its founding in 1928, but we mustn’t allow our joy to make us overlook one disappointing fact: The Defense Minister is widely reported to be an Islamist and the new “constitutional declaration” declares Sunni Sharia to be the “main source […]
