OUR LATEST newsletter for subscribers, Middle East Dispatch, launches on April 23rd. If you subscribe to you can .The Middle East is rarely out of the headlines. Today the focus is on the risks of an escalating conflict between Israel and Iran which would threaten the entire region. Meanwhile Israel is still mired in its war in Gaza and the humanitarian crisis there is deepening. That is not the only potential cause of instability. Some countries, such as Egypt, are home to large restive populations. The Middle East also has booming economies and glittering cities, ruled by autocrats whose decisions help determine the price and supply of oil, on which the fates of other economies and the global climate partly depend. One way or another, events here will affect profoundly what happens in the rest of the world. Middle East Dispatch is here to provide you with insight into this complex and consequential region.
