Stephen Bryen believes Yevgeny Prigozhin, leader of Russia’s Wagner group mercenary army, died in the wreckage of one of his private planes on August 23. Some early news reports noted speculation Prighozin might not have been aboard. Bryen also strongly suspects that the plane was shot down, not felled by a bomb smuggled on board or mechanical accident. But he is not sure Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered the spectacular assassination of his ally-turned-challenger. A former senior Pentagon

Recep Tayyip Erdogan won Turkey’s presidential runoff election May 28 with just 52 percent of the vote. That showed at least two things, Mark Meirowitz told participants in a Jewish Policy Center webinar on June 1. One, that after 20 years in power—during which he has closed a number of critical news media and jailed some opposition politicians—Erdogan “is not a strongman” in the mold of many dictators in the Middle East or elsewhere.

The United States and Israel have held exercises in CENTCOM with regional partners to help ensure that Iran will not get “the bomb.” But what will it take to create a firm coalition that could a) deter the Islamic Republic or b) eliminate the nuclear weapons capability?

While the Iranians claimed the Houthis in Yemen would stop attacking Saudi Arabia, the Saudis advocated for the return to the Arab League of Bashar Assad’s Syria, a move opposed by most Arab League members.

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas is in the 18th year of a four-year term, 87 years old, and a heavy smoker. A recent Palestinian public opinion poll indicates that Abbas and the PA are unpopular with the West Bank Arabs they administer and continue to lose influence to groups like Hamas, the Iranian-backed Islamic Resistance Movement. Hamas, a U.S.- and Israeli-designated terrorist movement, violently expelled the PA from the Gaza Strip in 2007. So, who will succeed the PA president,

The two powerful earthquakes that struck Turkey and Syria on February 6, and their dozens of aftershocks—which killed more than 40,000 people and left at least two million homeless, mostly in the former—should cause Americans “to rethink everything we thought about Turkey,” says Mark Meirowitz.

Russia’s war against Ukraine makes sense if one recognizes that Vladimir Putin sees himself as a modern czar, obligated to restore the Russian empire. So Cliff May, president of the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies, a Washington, D.C. think tank, told participants in a Jewish Policy Center webinar January 26. Putin in 2005 lamented the 1991 break-up of the Soviet Union as “the greatest geo-political catastrophe” of the 20th century, one that he claimed “left tens of millions” of Russian
