 * Keep. Major national newspaper profile:
 * Goodspeed, P. (2012, Jan 28). Ratcheting up the hassle factor; expert sees sanctions against iran wounding the regime by making it difficult to do business. National Post Retrieved from Proquest
 * We're not talking a few passing mentions, it should be noted. We're talking hundreds of mentions in major national newspapers across at least three countries (US, Israel, Canada) and dozens of op-eds.
 * Another article with extensive background on him is "REMEMBERING 9/11" (2011). Sheriff, 63(6), 6-10,14,17-19,22-35,37,39-40,42-50. Retrieved from Proquest--Samuel J. Howard (talk) 18:16, 6 January 2016 (UTC)

I say keep, because I came to find valuable information about his background after watching a Government Oversight and Reform committee meeting about the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanction movement against Israel.(this unsigned comment made by User:Fosterliberty who makes occassional, small edits, here: - E.M.Gregory (talk) 13:03, 17 January 2016 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Strong Keep The profile in the National Post cited above and the fact that he heads up a well-known D.C. think tank, along with the fact that he is widely cited, widely interviewed, his views are widely discussed and he is and widely published in major news media. A trout to Nom for not performing WP:BEFORE.  All you need do is run this name through a google news search to see that he's notable.  His opinions may not be my cup of tea, but his notability is patent.E.M.Gregory (talk) 03:36, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
