A weekly newsletter featuring the biggest ideas from the smartest people

I am traveling the next couple of days, and blogging will likely be sporadic until I return to Princeton on Wednesday just in time for a talk.

In the meantime here are some articles to read.

First up is the text of President Salih’s interview (H/T: The Majlis.)

Next is an interview with the governor of Shabwa in al-Sharq al-Awsat. (I originally had high hopes for this, but I didn’t learn much other than some geography.)

Finally, David Kenner at FP has this good rejoinder to a post I wrote earlier commenting on an earlier post of his – if you can follow the thread. His point is well taken.
