14. Could you define "Middle East expert?" The Fateful Triangle is a widely influential book
on Middle East politics and Chomsky was at one point the world's most cited living author. Expert usually implies publishing in a field (at least that' generally the standard for Congressional testimony if memory serves me write) and by any objective standard given his influential scholarship in the area of Middle East affairs Chomsky is certainly a standard.

Unless of course your definition of expert is political.
