 * Delete fails WP:PROF, none of his books get close to even 200 hits.  Ultra-Loser [ T  ] [  C  ]  06:04, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete, fails WP:PROF. Books listed are not notable. Seraphimblade 06:35, 24 November 2006 (UTC) Change to keep given new information and sources-apparently some note is taken of his work. Seraphimblade 17:46, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep A professor of political science at the American University of Beirut is quite notable. He has a significant (though not overwhelming) Google Scholar presence. In other words, he is a Arab voice with a significant foothold in Western academia. I prefer to err on the safe side of WP:BIAS in a case like this one. 08:23, 24 November 2006 (UTC) That was me.

 * Keep and cleanup. His books are taken seriously, with multiple independent reviews; and his quantative survey work is widely reported - for example, in Israel and by Pew . --Mereda 17:20, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Authored lead article in inaugural issue of the Middle East Quarterly and served on its board for seven years.
