H1 Guardian Iran's secret plan to force US out of Iraq in summer Iran preparing for showdown with coalition forces intended to tip US Congress into voting for full military withdrawal, US officials say.

Washington PostAfter the Surge

The Administration Floats Ideas for a New Approach in Iraq By David Ignatius,

Guardian America's reputation is in tatters. But after Bush, recovery could be swift Max Hastings: The next US president will inherit a legacy of global mistrust. Restoration of its authority must begin with a painful exit from Iraq.

UPI Analysis: The Middle East's next war The next major Middle East war could well be fought not over land, oil or religion -- the traditional causes of conflict to date -- but over water, a precious commodity becoming rarer by the day.

Morgan Stanley Policy Pitfalls in an Asset-Dependent World What do these three developments have in common: Washington-led protectionism, China’s equity bubble, and a dollar-exposed Middle East?

Al Hayat An Arab 'Coup de Grace'! Jamil Ziabi - The Arabs are in bad need of an awakening; a national revolution orchestrated by unity, principles of equality, and dependence on transparency, modern education, powerful economy, and common interests.

IHT Analysis: Germans enter new phase in relations with RussiaGermany's relations with Russia were never likely to be as cozy under Chancellor Angela Merkel as under her predecessor.

Asia Times Looking beyond the limits Beyond the "political psychology" and "symbolic politics" of next week's dialogue in Baghdad, one of Iran's main objectives is to make sure there is no substantive change of heart on the part of the Bush administration regarding the viability of the Shi'ite-led government in Iraq. Tehran is also mindful that no matter how much the agenda is limited to Iraq only, there is the potential for the talks to develop into broader, follow-up dialogue. - Kaveh L Afrasiabi

SPENGLER Those pesky puppies of war Persians are chess players, and recent geopolitical setbacks and internal rivalries do not imply that the Iranians have abandoned the game. Real conflict, however, is not a chessboard - the pawns have an unpleasant tendency to move on their own. Trivialities have started devastating wars before, and may well do so again.

Hardliners, hard options The most ideologically antagonistic elements within the Iranian regime and the US administration perhaps see in the talks on Iraq a short-term opportunity to save their respective sinking ships and to buy time to prepare for a new game of "winner takes all". The main losers will be Iranian opposition groups. - Massoud Khodabandeh

Al Hayat An Arab 'Coup de Grace'! Jamil Ziabi - The Arabs are in bad need of an awakening; a national revolution orchestrated by unity, principles of equality, and dependence on transparency, modern education, powerful economy, and common interests.

Making Diplomatic and Military Strategy Work Together in Iraq
Carlos Pascual and Larry Diamond, The Brookings Institution

Nuclear Parleys Run Parallel to Iraq Talks By: Kimia Sanati | Inter Press Service While the Iranian regime has been categorical that negotiations with the European Union over its controversial nuclear programme are isolated from planned talks with the United States over security in Iraq, the timing of the parleys are such that overlap may be hard to avoid.

New York Times Editorial Iran’s Centrifuges Given the urgency and ambition of Iran’s nuclear program, what is needed is a more urgent and ambitious international response.

What they have said about Foreign Press Review
"FPR'ın iki "kötü" özelliği var: 1. Alışkanlık yaratıyor, onsuz yapamaz hale geliyorsunuz; 2. Değeri alındığı değil, arada bir de olsa, alınamadığı vakit anlaşılıyor. Bir de sürekli bir kaygıya yol açıyor; 'Ya bir gün kesilir ve onu hiç alamazsam' duygusuyla sürekli yaşamak kolay değil."

Cengiz Çandar


"... fantastic .... an outstanding and unique service, not just for those who follow Turkey closely, but those who follow international trends and ideas. ... selection of material is some of the best anywhere ... coverage of the Turkish press and Turkish issues is truly unsurpassed .... outstanding and intelligent service"
