The Greater Middle East

How should the United States proceed in the Middle East beyond the borders of Iraq? Middle East experts Michael Barnett, Meghan O'Sullivan of the Kennedy School, Stephen Cook from the Council on Foreign Relations and Vali Nasr, author of the "Shia Revival" consider national security priorities from Israel/Palestine to Afghanistan and Pakistan, with particular attention paid to the rise of Iran in the wake of America's intervention in Iraq.
