MidEast Dispatch: Tectonic Shifts in the Arab World (Podcast)

I’m in Israel this week for the 2013 World Summit on Counter Terrorism sponsored by the Interdisciplinary Center in Herzliya.

Yesterday I had the opportunity to talk at length with my friend and colleague Avi Melamed about ongoing events in the region.
