Marjorie Ranson of the Institute for the Study of Diplomacy at Georgetown University has said that "the Middle East is not only a part of the world marked by stark difference and violent collisions. It is also marked by nuance and complication. Raghida has the intellect and fluency in English and Arabic, which allows her to go beyond the headlines to see the opportunities."

She can bring insight not only into the cultural chasm between the Arab and Western Worlds, but what must be done to bridge that gap. From mail bombs to military tribunals, her career has brought her into jeopardy on more than one occasion.
