    Subscription only, so I guess we'll never know why.

    My no-subscription-required opinion: There are people on all sides making obscene amounts of money and ensuring their grip on political power through conflicts in the middle east. Should those conflicts be resolved that wealth and power would be in jeopardy, so as long as these people and their like-minded successors are around there will be no breakthroughs.

    Maybe I could come up with something more nuanced if I was getting paid, though.
