It was YOUR link. Ok, here's mine: "February 2, 2008 by Alex Safian, PhD The Robert Malley – Arafat Connection Robert Malley is one of the most often quoted commentators on U.S. Middle East policy and the Arab-Israeli conflict, thanks mostly to his time in the Clinton administration, where he served on the National Security Council as Director for Near East and South Asian Affairs, and also as Special Assistant to the President for Arab-Israeli Affairs. Malley served in these positions despite having no special expertise in Middle East questions – he is a Harvard-trained lawyer and later spent a few years at Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar. With the beginning of the Bush administration in 2001 Malley moved over to the policy and think tank world, continuing his involvement with Middle East issues. He was Senior Policy Advisor at the Center for Middle East Peace and Economic Cooperation, and is now with the Soros-funded International Crisis Group, where he serves as Middle East and North Africa Program Director. It is since joining the policy and analysis world that his media profile took off: for example, searching Robert Malley on Google yields 27,000 hits while a similar search on the professional news database Nexis returns 1,358 citations. He is perhaps most well known for a controversial series of articles in 2001 blaming Israel and exonerating Arafat for the failure of the Clinton peace efforts. Malley has recently also been listed by the Washington Post as a Middle East advisor to Presidential candidate Senator Barack Obama, though others have disputed this." camera.org There was a link to the Washington post in the above. Herres the start of that: "The War Over the Wonks washingtonpost.com Wednesday, October 2, 2007 Democrats: Hillary Clinton \| Barack Obama \| John Edwards Republicans: Rudolph Giuliani \| John McCain \| Mitt Romney A list of the national security and foreign policy advisers to the leading presidential candidates from both parties." washingtonpost.com That's all from '07.
