Morocco, the Forgotten Arab Moderate
(Washington Times) Robert Satloff - Imagine a populous Arab country that lies astride a strategic waterway through which much of the world's shipping - including U.S. Navy aircraft carriers - regularly passes.

It also just won an encouraging evaluation from the IMF for its economic management. It is the quintessential "Arab moderate" state, but in the reality of U.S. policy, Morocco does not even register.
