Syriana By: Michael Young | The Wall Street Journal (subscription required) Foreign capitals are increasingly engaging Syrian President Bashar Assad, whether on Lebanon's future or on regional peace talks, as Syria's inclusion in yesterday's Annapolis conference shows. If this engagement is done clumsily -- as it has been so far -- we will soon be reading the Cedar Revolution's obituary

White House squabble on releasing Iranians A behind-the-scenes row in the Bush administration played a part in the decision to release nine Iranian prisoners. Cheney and Petraeus, US commander in Iraq, took a hit, but administration hardliners continue to oppose any further move to reduce tensions with Iran. - Gareth Porter

Selling the US by the dollar The US$7.5 billion that the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority is paying to buy a 4.9% stake in Citigroup begins the process of selling off America's remarkably innovative and profitable financial system. The country will now be paying a rent, in the form of the profits accruing to Abu Dhabi and the other foreign buyers that must surely follow its lead, equal to what it once collected for itself. - Julian Delasantellis

Inside Pakistan's Drive to Guard A-Bombs Pakistan's nuclear-security web involves a battery of checks aimed at rooting out human foibles that might lead one to betray national secrets. But the new program probes most deeply into degrees of religious fervor.

H2 Jerusalem Post 'A lot can change in 60 years' 60 years since UN vote, the ties have changed; Israel's relationship with Turkey can attest to that

Stratfor Iraq: The Arbil-Baghdad Divide ”… just as the Kurds have a vested interest in keeping Kurdistan in a legal gray area, so too do they have an interest in keeping the legal niceties of Iraq itself obfuscated. While Iraq remains in legal limbo, the degree to which Arbil exercises local policy control is not a headline issue. Luckily for the Kurds of Iraq, that limbo shows no sign of resolving itself. After all, even within the Iraqi Shiite community there are divisions over everything from the level of power to grant the central government to the role of Iran -- a level of continual confusion that allows Arbil to quietly proceed with building de facto independence, no matter what Shahristani says.”

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"
