3arabawy

By Hossam el-Hamalawy

Commentary on Egypt's military, security services, foreign policy, and local dissent

As an American, it's difficult to find honest journalism about the rest of the world, specifically countries in the Middle East and Northern Africa. 3arabawy is exactly what I'm looking for — honest, important journalism that helps me see through the blinders of US-based outlets to understand the real story.
