Levant Media and its news group, The Mideast Update (www.themideastupdate.com), seek to provide news and insights on Israel, the broader Middle East and US foreign policy in the region from a perspective rarely seen in other media. As part of our reporting and research, we provide insights and interviews from sources who are either in the region or who have a genuine interest in—or connection to—t
he news. We treat our audience and our sources ultimately as people, worthy of respect. About Our Founder:
