John Pilger and Olivier Roy on Egypt's revolt | Stanley Johnson: save our forests | Sadiq Khan on class war

Weekly Online Newsletter 10 February 2011 Home Editor's Choice Features Regulars Arts & Books Blogs Subscribe   Editor's Choice IN THIS WEEK'S NEW STATESMAN... In this week's New Statesman we ask what the tumultuous events in the Middle East mean for the future of the region. In our cover story, Olivier Roy, one of the world's leading experts on political Islam, says that one thing is certain: the age of Arab-Muslim exceptionalism is over. Elsewhere, Jon Bernstein explains why Israel is so troubled by events in Egypt. Also this week, Mehdi Hasan condemns Labour's feeble response to David Cameron's attack on multiculturalism, NS editor Jason Cowley laments the intellectual paucity of the coalition, John Pilger says the Egyptian revolt is coming home and Alice Miles looks at how rising fuel prices are preventing people from working. All this, plus Stanley Johnson on why the government's forest sell-off will cost us dear, interviews with Labour cabinet minister Sadiq Khan and TV presenter Lauren Laverne and Ryan Gilbey on the Coen brothers' new film, True Grit.
