I have a short piece on Jerusalem on The Nation's website today. I'll be working on one more short piece for the website and a couple of longer pieces for the print mag over the month ahead.

Also, in case some of you haven't looked at the top of JWN's left sidebar recently, I thought I should tell you about my upcoming stand-alone talk in DC. It's a sort of trip report-- okay, a collection of highlights from my recent trip; and it'll be at lunch-time on Tuesday, March 31, not April 1, as I'd earlier told some people.

Finally, at the end of next week I'll be taking part in the G.U Center for Contemporary Arab Studies' symposium on "Palestine and the Palestinians today". I'm contributing to the very last of the symposium's panel discussions, on the Friday afternoon. I'm expecting to have learned a huge amount from the other presenters before then.

The two DC events both require pre-registration.
