    Egypt's Living Dictionary (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    When I first met Dr. Mustafa El-Feki at the home of Ahmed Bahaa El-Din, he had just begun his duties as president of the British University in Egypt. The next time I met him, he had become secretary-general of the Bibliotheca Alexandrina, without giving up his position at the university. Alongside his two academic posts, you could find Dr. El-Feki writing in the newspapers, speaking on television almost every day, lecturing, or serving as a go-to authority at political and media conferences.

    Has the United Nations Come to an End? A Quieter World (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    The United Nations thrives on fear and devastation. You hear about it only when a problem becomes serious. Then the secretary-general moves into action, and so does the Security Council. As for the General Assembly, it has little to offer beyond speeches and statements. As for its president, or its female president, as in the current session, the position is largely ceremonial, rather like an honorary doctorate from a university in Alaska. In any case, the General Assembly remains the most impor

    Excerpt · English

    Talk of a federal system has once again returned loudly in Lebanon. In other words, an undeclared partition. The campaign is now being led by men of considerable refinement and integrity. But everyone knows that federalism, decentralization, and other such labels are attempts to soften the unpleasant feeling triggered by the idea itself. Those who want to escape from one another are reluctant to admit it. A hundred years have shown that the country's wars far outnumber its periods of unity. Some

    In Memory of September 11 (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    On September 11, 2001, the men of al-Qaeda wanted to break the West. Not through a prolonged war, but in a single battle. Not on the ground, but high above the earth. One spectacular assault, and the myth of the West and its towers would come to an end. It would suffer its losses in the richest cities on earth. Everything was meticulously prepared. The latest tools of modernity were used in the process. The al-Qaeda operatives of September 11 were trained to fly planes, to use them to strike the

    Lebanon: Beyond the Hills, the Mountains (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    In military language, when a town "falls," it means that it is no longer a place where people can live safely. The latest town declared fallen in the South Lebanon war is Ali al-Taher. Since the fighting began, it has been referred to by several names and descriptions, including the facility, the center, and the command post. Whatever the case, its fall after a long resistance represents a change in the broader battle map between Hezbollah and Israel. The South has lost its major and symbolic to
