The Atlantic

Disclaimer: this post has nothing to do with traveling.

The most recent issue of the Atlantic has a fascinating/terrifying story about Israel, Iran, and the Obama Administration. The main takeaway is that we had all better hope Obama's strategy with Iran (sanctions steadily increasing in intensity and an open hand to return to the negotiating table) had better work. Otherwise, israel will bomb Iran and then things will basically go to hell. Israel will become even more isolated, including from its only real ally (us) gas prices will skyrocket, launching us into a new recession, and other bad things will happen. Anyway, the article is by Jeff Goldberg, who some people don't like, but I found it very fair and well reported. Go read
