Order From Ashes Podcast: What’s Next for the Muslim Brotherhood?

CAIRO, EGYPT - JULY 26: Supporters of deposed Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi sits under a shelter during a demonstration in support of deposed Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi at the Rabaa al-Adweya mosque in the district of Nasr City on July 26, 2013 in Cairo, Egypt. Morsi supporters gathered to protest the overthrow of Morsi, Egypt's first democratically elected leader, by the Egyptian Armed Forces. Muslim Brotherhood leaders called for pro-Morsi protesters to return to the streets on Friday in response to a speech made by General Ahmed Fattah al-Sissi, the Chief of Egypt's Armed Forces, who called for mass anti-Morsi protests across Egypt against 'violence and terrorism' and in support of the military's overthrow of Morsi.

Order from Ashes Podcast: Can the U.S. Help Syria Without Helping Assad?

ATMEH, SYRIA - SEPTEMBER 17: A general view of the village of Atmeh which hosts nearly 1 million displaced Syrians near the Syrian-Turkish border in Idlib Province September 17, 2019 in Atmeh, Syria. Turkey’s president, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, is pushing for the creation of an expanded “safe zone” in northern Syria where his government hopes to resettle up to three million Syrian refugees. The United States and Turkey recently started joint patrols of a small buffer zone along the border, but it’s a far cry from the 20-by-300 mile strip proposed by Mr. Erdogan, and no other power involved in the war as agreed to the idea. Turkey has warned that, if it doesn’t receive more international support for the safe zone, it might relax its migration controls and reopen the route for refugees to enter Europe. More than 3.6 million Syrian refugees have settled in Turkey after fleeing the civil war that began in 2011. (Photo by Burak Kara/Getty Images)
