El-Sayed, who narrowly defeated four-term Congresswoman Haley Stevens by fewer than 15,000 votes in the August primary, now faces Rogers, a former Army officer, FBI special agent, congressman, and chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, in a race that could…Open

Abdul El-Sayed narrowly beat Rep. Haley Stevens Wednesday in a rancorous Democratic primary for the Michigan senate race, the latest in a string of primary victories the progressive wing of the Democratic Party has achieved against more moderate candidates.

(Photo by Stringer/Anadolu via Getty Images) The recent war with Iran has been fought largely without the support of traditional European allies as well as aspirational Asian ones. Middle Eastern allies, however, have been far more willing partners. Israel is the most notable, but the Gulf states should not escape notice. They spent the last several decades sidling up to Western governments and capital, an approach that seemed broadly successful. They were able to maintain just…Open
