SUMMARY:Who's Behind Instability in the Middle East?
DESCRIPTION:WATCH VIDEO OF THE EVENT BELOW The Middle East has suffered imm
 ensely from civil wars\, especially in the decade following the Arab Sprin
 g. Hundreds of thousands have died\, millions have fled from their homes\,
  and untold numbers have been subjected to poverty and repression in place
 s from Libya to Iraq and Syria to Yemen. American policymakers have attemp
 ted to blame the chaos on “malign activities” by U.S. rivals\, but a n
 ew paper by Matthew Petti and Trita Parsi\, “No Clean Hands: The Interve
 ntions of Middle Eastern Powers\, 2010-2020\,” suggests that the picture
  is more complicated. U.S. partners and allies are behind many of the regi
 on’s proxy interventions and have gotten increasingly aggressive in rece
 nt years. And they have fought each other as much as they have fought agai
 nst U.S. rivals. How will — or should — this reality impact U.S. polic
 y\, since five out of the six most interventionist states in the region ar
 e armed and politically supported by the United States? And what leverage 
 does Washington have to roll back the malign activities of regional powers
  — friends and enemies alike?
