Jonathan Cristol is an American academic, professor, and U.S. foreign policy commentator. He is a frequent contributor to CNN[1][2][3][4][5] and is the author of The United States and the Taliban before and after 9/11 published in 2018.[6] Cristol is affiliated with the Center for Civic Engagement at Bard College, the Levermore Global Scholars Program at Adelphi University, and the Carnegie Council for Ethics in International Affairs.[7]

Cristol is an expert on issues pertaining to international security, Middle East politics, the Korean Peninsula, and U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East and East Asia.[8] He is also a scholar of political realism and has specific expertise in the works of Hans Morgenthau.[9] Regarding Cristol's recent analysis of the Taliban, the academic press Palgrave Macmillan has asserted that his 2018 book "present[s] a different picture of the Taliban from what most people have in mind."[10]
