As Clinton and Romney win the Nevada primaries, Justin Elliot asks at Mother Jones why the leading candidates don’t have more to say about crucial Middle East policy, including Israel-Palestine issues.

The new issue of Arab Media and Society is available online. It is an exciting journal, and this crop of articles is especially germane to our various crises.

Charles Smith has more on Bush and the Palestine issue.

Barnett Rubin weighs in on the issue of whether Afghanistan poppy cultivation can be fought through simple forced eradication or whether it is wrought up with livelihoods.

Rubin also points to recent important pieces on the Pakistan crisis.
