This is my first adventure into the blogging world. My background is in Arabic and Middle East studies, so this blog will focus primarily on that region of the world. Through my posts, I hope to delve into Western perceptions of the Middle East and how those affect the United States socially, culturally and politically. I am using this as a means through which I can disseminate my knowledge and also for my own personal academic growth, so, feel free to share!
The title of my blog was inspired my Mitt Romney's ad-lib and misguided approach to U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East. More gaffes to come, of course.
"All right, we have a potentially volatile situation but we sort of live with it, and we kick the ball down the field and hope that ultimately, somehow, something will happen and resolve it."
U.S. FOREIGN POLICY IN THE MIDDLE EAST = CHECK.
Nailed it.
