This is precisely why his latest article, "Rahm Emanuel and Arab Perceptions," is so disturbing. In the piece, [James Zogby] tries to calm the fears of Arab Americans about Barack Obama's first appointment, Rahm Emanuel, to White House chief of staff. Zogby expressed shock and dismay that his constituency, once euphoric over the election of Obama, was now sending him angry and cynical letters. Zogby described the emails and calls to his office as "troubled and troubling-because much of the reaction was based on misinformation and because of what the entire episode reveals about the larger political dynamic. Zogby immediately followed up with what he calls "the facts" (i.e. a long list of Rahm Emanuel's accomplishments), while conveniently leaving out any of his troubling positions rela...
Dr. James Zogby, president of the Arab American Institute, shared anecdotes of American Muslims-their individual struggles and aspirations in the U.S. He cited polls that show a correlation between Muslim and Catholic-American values, indicating similar opinions on healthcare and education as well as conservative tendencies on social issues.
[Newt Gingrich] knows better," CAIR's [Nihad Awad] said. "He knows the Muslim community. He met with them. And I think this is a cheap shift, just for political gain. He's a well-read individual. But I think he's not taking the leadership position. He's exploiting the ignorance. Even as Muslim leaders attempt to restore the community's political clout, it's unlikely we'll see anything like 2000 anytime soon. MPACs [Haris Tarin] was not involved in those efforts, but he believes the idea of a "Muslim vote," championed by his organization a decade ago, is unrealistic given the immense diversity of the American Muslim community. "It could be done potentially at the local level- places like Northern Virginia, or parts of Michigan," he says. "But at the national level, having a bloc vote i...

The peace process in the Middle East, which looked almost impossible at one time, progressed rapidly after September 1993. Negotiations are going on between the leaders of Israel, Palestine, Syria and Jordan as they now realize the importance of peace. The United States has played a crucial role in the entire peace process. Apart from the political steps, the US has also promised economic support to the countries in Middle East. However, James Zogby has expressed his doubts over the entire peace process and believes that the entire edifice can fall.

Another took offense when the Arab American Institute's James Zogby (brother of pollster John) blamed Palestinians and their supporters for not doing a better job clarifying the Arab side of the issue. [...] we can afford a larger staff we depend on you to be our eyes, ears and legs.
Michelle Malkin's observations about the furor in the Islamic world concerning depictions of the prophet Muhammad in a Danish newspaper show the real danger in offending Muslim sensibilities ("Harbinger in Denmark?" Commentary, Saturday). Though the editorial cartoons may have lacked taste, the larger question is whether Islamic hotheads will be allowed to control the discussion in the West regarding the role of that religion in non-Muslim societies, the imposition of its cultural values and, it must be said, support for terrorism around the world. Last week in London, Muslim demonstrators shouted "U.K. You will pay. Bin Ladin's on his way." In the United States, reaction has been less militant but has followed a typical path. U.S. Muslims also want to seize the moral high ground by tak...
