At times watching the US in the Middle East America appears as a modern day Gulliver wandering around in a region it often fails to understand; tied up by powers large and small whose interests are frequently not its own, and burdened by its own illusions. What are US interests in the Middle East and how can America best protect them?

Join Aaron David Miller veteran State Department Middle East analyst, adviser, negotiator in Republican and Democratic Administrations in conversation.
