correspondent who turned her eye for this issue and new book the vanishing, faith lost in the twilight of christianity in the land of the prophets. janine, this is such an interesting and important book. what drew you to it? when did you sort of realize yourself this is extraordinarily the big trend not many people have written about? yes, exactly. i started working on it really 30 years ago when i started working in the middle east exclusively. and what i found, especially around the time of the fall of saddam hussein in 2003 in iraq was that so many of the christians were leaving. they were either fearful of a change of hand, of what would happen when saddam left, and then much later in 2014, of course, when the islamic state rolled through. and now there s even greater challenges for them. when people think about the middle east, you do think about the expulsion of jews, which is exactly not often talked about

When Netflix’s latest true crime show, “The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel,” dropped Wednesday, it immediately shot to the number one spot on its most-watched list.
It’s understandable. Even if you don t think you know the case, you probably do. You’ve likely seen the grainy clip of 21-year-old Elisa Lam ducking in and out of an elevator, looking frantic and upset. Or you remember the 2013 headlines about the missing guest found dead in a Los Angeles hotel’s rooftop water tank a few weeks after she was last spotted in that surveillance video.
