This interview presents an excellent example of what I'd like to see more of in the media: keeping it real. As the questions are thrown at the interviewee, they are backed up by cold hard data and a persistence that only wanes when the interview tries to surpass the five or six vague policy remarks from by the U.S. Department of State. I think the U.S. is in a tight spot in this situation, and that we should probably try to tread lightly as these events unfold. We have a history of making a mess of things in the Middle East (Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, our fervent support of Israel, etc.).
