Capturing the MidEast in short soundbites: poignant reflections by people who understand the complexities of the Middle East. My philosophy is: "less is more." You won't agree with everything that's here, but I'm confident you will find it interesting! Excepting the titles, my own comments are minimal. Instead I rely on news sources to string together what I hope is an interesting, politically challenging, non-partisan, non-ideological narrative.

The Documentary that PBS Refused to Air
"Islam vs. Islamists" was produced with Corporation for Public Broadcasting funds. However PBS crushed it before it reached the viewing public. The full documentary, which champions moderate Muslims, is now available online and above.
The Documentary that PBS Refused to Air: Islam Vs. Islamists
This full-length documentary was produced by ABG Films with funds from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. It was originally slated to run as part of PBS' "America at a Crossroads" series. However, after viewing the film, PBS executives told the filmmakers that it was "alarmist" and "overreaching" and that PBS would not run it.
