In case it hasn't been obvious, I'm not collecting the links to individual posts over at the new blog site here anymore.  Please come over to lynch.foreignpolicy.com for current posts.  Thanks!

Posts for email subscribers:

• Disappointment at Sharm al-Shaykh, in which I register my frustration at Hillary Clinton's "West Bank First, Fatah Only" speech and lack of encouraging words for Palestinian unity talks;  followed by commentary by Tamara Wittes (who disagrees) and Nathan Brown (who agrees).  A very interesting exchange, IMHO.

Posts for email subscribers:

• Continuing the Iraq argument, in which I respond to contributions from Christian Brose, Tom Ricks, and Peter Feaver.

Today's post for email subscribers:

• Those two months made all the difference, in which I marvel at the rush to embrace Obama's Iraq plan by the same people who used to attack it even though it only changed by two months. 

Posts for email subscribers:

• Obama gets it right on Iraq, in which I respond favorably to the big speech. 
• Towards a Palestinian accord, in which I consider the potential of the announcement of moves towards a unity government

Today's and yesterday's posts, for email subscribers:

• Listening to Amr Moussa, in which I recount his appearance today at Carnegie with David Ignatius
• Muslims still don't like al-Qaeda or the U.S., in which I discuss the latest PIPA survey of Muslim opinion released today
• 18 months, in which I express cautious delight at the rumour of an Obama decision on Iraq
• Jordan's cabinet shuffle, in which I discuss the implications such as they are of the new Jordanian government lineup.  If I had waited a day, I could have added a senior Islamic Action Front leader rolling his eyes and saying "that doesn't matter."

Today's post for email subscribers:

• My review of Tom Ricks, The Gamble.  And here's a direct link to the review, as part of weeklong "virtual book club."

Sorry, been doing a terrible job keeping up with these links for email subscribers.  Here are my FP.com posts for the last few days.

• Still waiting on public diplomacy (Feb 17), in which I consider personnel rumors in the area
• All aboard the Arab reconciliation train (Feb 18), in which I note the accelerating moves in that direction and what they might mean
• Ayman Nour's release - symbol and substance (Feb 19), in which I hope that this doesn't end U.S. pressure for democratic reforms in Egypt
• What's happening in Bahrain (I mean, the 14th province of Iran), in which I note the Arab enthusiasm for a diplomatic crisis with Iran
• Public diplomacy and strategic communications: the conversation, in which I link to my new long article on U.S. engagement with the Muslim world.  Direct link to it here.

Catching up on a few days worth of posts over at Foreign Policy:

• International Relations 2008, in which I discuss the latest TRIP survey of the field and inadvertantly trigger a NESCAC war
• Arabs closing ranks, in which I discuss the Saudi outreach to Syria
• Blogging the Middle East, in which I link to a summary another blogger did of my talk on the subject

Today's FP.com post for email subscribers:

• Signs of the (coming) Middle East, in which I note that the Saudi press is more interested in the visit of China's President than in the Israeli election.
