- The Marwa al-Sherbini case.
- Those Qatari Coup Rumors. Posted, oddly enough, while I was on vacation, and purely derivative, but it still gets hits.
- "She was a Splendid Beast": The Arabic Transliteration Problem. One of my own favorites; glad others agree.
- More Mousavi Fever: Rafsanjani Attacks Ahmadinejad. Nothing brilliant here; just commenting on Iran, but at the height of the furor. Later addendum: and Gary Sick linked to this on the Gulf 2000 listserv, which is a real draw, and at his blog.
- Fun with Google Earth: Middle Eastern Airbase Recon. I had fun doing this, and I'm glad many of you liked it.

Congrats on your first year as a blogger.

Happy New Year.
The blog would get my vote for best Middle East blog 2009. It's always topical, interesting, judicious and informative. Sukhran jazeelan.
I hope that you have a great 2010.

"And that's the way it is" and "Good night and Good Luck" were taglines for two folks from the WWII generation, but certainly familiar to ours.
