Fouad Ajami
Article Abstract:
Fouad Ajami's analyses of American foreign-policy matters were much in demand by the media during the 1991 Gulf War, which helped establish him as an influential and, sometimes, highly controversial voice on Middle East affairs. Ajami's book "The Foreigner's Gift: The Americans, the Arabs, and the Iraqis in Iraq" is a compilation of sketches, interviews and reflections that reveal his cautious optimism about America's involvement in Iraq and the Middle East.
