As some of you may have read, I was planning to travel to the University of Michigan and do an interview with Prof. Juan Cole, the noted expert on the Middle East and proprietor of the blog Informed Comment (juancole.com). This was an outgrowth of an email exchange that I had with him as well as some diaries I posted on dKos and on BMT.
