Abstract
First paragraph: The drylands of the Middle East have been long seen not only as unfavourable to life, but also and relatedly, socio-politically fragile. Fraught with myths of eternal ¡®ethnic¡¯, ¡®sectarian¡¯, or ¡®resource conflict¡¯, the chronic political instability of the Middle East from Afghanistan and Yemen to Iraq and Syria has been often seen as intrinsic to a scarce ¡®nature¡¯, a scorched earth, tendentially collapsing into brute violence which in its spectacular extreme has been exercised by the so-called ¡®Islamic State¡¯ (IS).
