Get a copy of Islam Issa’s definitive history of Alexandria. It’s fantastic seeing someone speak about the MENA region as an insider rather than an outsider looking in. amazon.co.uk/Alexandria-Cit… (US you’ll have to wait till the new year)

Western diplomats (and their governments) left hundreds -- maybe 1000s -- of Sudanese visa applicants stranded in a warzone without a passport.

Human rights lawyers say that these countries may be liable.
