Polistratics is an independent media publication focused on strategy, diplomacy, and security, with a core emphasis on the Middle East and its impact on the wider world. We curate the most important reporting, track key developments in real time, and add clear, sourced context that helps readers understand what is happening, why it matters, and what may come next.

Our work blends three things: a daily “Wire” of curated links, a weekly flagship brief, and original analysis from Nawaf and a small network of specialist contributors. Polistratics is built to be fast, readable, and useful, with a straightforward editorial promise: signal over noise, clarity over slogans, and strong sourcing over speculation.
