What I read this week, and best wishes to readers in 2014:
Culture and memory in Franco’s Spain.

A reminder that Russia is not the USSR.
Will Edrogan cause his own downfall?
Via Matt Duss, Israeli military intelligence “does not view Rohani’s election as a deception by Khamenei intended solely to mislead the West, but rather as an authentic leader who is creating an independent power center.”
An Israeli lawyer criss-crosses Jerusalem’s two parallel — and divided — cities.
Shashank Joshi passes along an interesting piece about India’s HAL Tejas fighter and a high-low mixed fighter force.
From earlier in the week, linkage on political violence at PVGlance.
