Middle East expert and former State Department official Ari Ratner joins us today to help us understand what is going on in the region today and where it is going.  Is there there a positive outcome in Syria for the US?  What should the President do about the gas attack, if anything?  Will the military government replicate the Mubarak regime in Egypt and how will that affect the US?  The Egyptian people?  Israel?   Will Islamists in the Sinai attack Israel and will Israel fight back instead of holding its fire like it did during the Iraq war?  
 Call in and ask Ari ratner your questions.  2:05 pm ET.
