Thanks, that's an interesting piece, if marred by his assertion that Obama has any sort of policy towards "the Soviet Union". But his major thesis, that there is little (Western) media attention paid to the root causes is spot-on. I'll note that I've read a number of analyses pointing to the crisis as signs of the eco-apocalypse, though — which also haven't looked much at the politics, except to suggest that the Middle East is kind of crazy.
That's right, they're (only) environmental refugess
