As'ad Abu-Khalil, 
born March 16, 1960. 
From Tyre, Lebanon, 
grew up in Beirut. 
 
As'ad Abu-Khalil. 
Received his BA and MA from American University of Beirut in pol sc. Came to
US in 1983 and received his PhD in comparative government from Georgetown
University. 
 
Taught at Tufts University, Georgetown University, George Washington
University, Colorado College, and Randolph-Macon Woman's College. 
 
Served as a Scholar-in-Residence at Middle East Institute in Washington DC. 
 
He served as free-lance Middle East consultant for NBC News and ABC News, an
experience that only served to increase his disdain for mainstream US media.

 
He is now professor of political science at California State University,
Stanislaus and visiting professor at UC, Berkeley. 
 
His favorite food is fried eggplants.

This guy is the best commentator on middle east affairs on the planet and in
particular an expert on Lebanon. In fact I would challenge you to find
anyone better... He is not afraid to criticise anyone regardless of their
political position or their religious or enthic affiliation. If he thinks
they are out of order he says so. 
 
I also like his sense of Humor.. As a hobby he is keeping a list of the
alleged miracles of Mother Teresa, one of which was when he prayed in her
name and his sink was unblocked...
