This Philip Weiss post on the role of Near Eastern affairs in Passaic County politics brought a question to mind: what has George Ajjan, our man in Passaic County, been doing lately? His latest post shows a promotional poster for the Inaugural in Senegal, where he travels from time to time, but we haven’t heard much from George over the last few months. If you haven’t read his blog before, I recommend looking back through his archives for very interesting discussions of Near Eastern politics and U.S. policy.
