The way theyre seated but first, a senior fellow for middle east policy who has written excellent analyses of the situation in syria and iraq as well as within islam. If youre not familiar with the analysis preceding the civil war which identified the ground war for possible sectarian conflict in syria, it was really an impression analysis and he remains one of the best analysis of the situation that i know of. Kristin is the president and ceo of the organization and has had a long productive career. I should add they both are members of our task force. Finally, Katherine Zimmerman from the critical threats project at the American Enterprise institute, her article is an excellent read. Finally, as our moderator we are pleased to have kim barker from the New York Times who has tremendous experience reporting from afghanistan and pakistan and whose excellent book i also recommend to all of you on the taliban shuffle, strange days in afghanistan and pakistan. Thank you for having us here
