Working
with Iran to Stabilize Iraq
What A.Q. Khan Knows
In this OpEd piece in the Washington
Post, Selig Harrison argues that Abdul Qadeer Khan could have
played a larger role in how North Korea came to possess centrifuges
for uranium enrichment. Selig goes into further detail about
why "Musharraf is determined to keep Khan under wraps" and whether
or not North Korea will give the facts in order for the denuclearization
process to be completed.

Beware
Pashtunistan
In his latest piece, featured
in Newsweek International, Selig S. Harrison stresses
the importance of the U.S. encouraging a fair election in Pakistan.
Harrison warns of a breakaway 'Pashtunistan,' that could not
only divide Pakistan, but also destabilize the entire Middle
East.

Improving
the chances of a fair election
Selig S. Harrison's Op-Ed in
The Globe and Mail questions
whether Benazir Bhutto will make it to the January elections
alive. More importantly, Harrison suggests that even if she
does, the chances of a fair election, and a Bhutto-majority
large enough to enact change, are slim. Harrison exposes rigging
schemes in Pakistani-Parliamentary elections, concluding with
a discussion of possible pressure U.S. and European aid donors
could put on the Musharraf-run government to ensure free and
fair elections.

Sanctions
Won't Stop Tehran
Selig S. Harrison's Op-Ed in
The Washington Post argues
that the persuading the Islamic Republic of Iran to renounce
nuclear weapons will be significantly more difficult than the
negotiations that led to North Korean disarmament. Harrison
warns against sanctions, instead recommending a multilateral
dialogue that addresses Iran's security concerns, including
Israel.

The
US meddles aggressively in Iran
Selig
S. Harrison's Op-Ed in Le Monde Diplomatique
explores the covert action the United States
is taking in Iran to encourage regime change. Harrison declares
the Bush Administration's policies of aiding the MEK, as well
as arming militias through proxies like Israel and Pakistan,
counterproductive. Harrison warns that such measures merely
strengthen the support of conservative hard-liners in Iran.
Harrison proposes stopping destabilization, but admits that
Iran is unlikely to concede to nuclear negotiations unless the
United States dramatically alters it's posture in the Gulf.
