Jordan Leads Peace Effort

what has been lacking in the past is the participation of other Middle Eastern countries.  With King Abdullah leading the coalition perhaps there will be a modicum of success for peace in that critical part of the world.  Netanyahu seems intent on forcing a wedge between Hamas and Fatah to weaken them both but maybe the wiser course is to nudge them into peaceful resolution and effective government.  With the turn of events in many Middle Eastern countries and the favor that the Palestinian cause is finding internationally perhaps this is a window of opportunity.

Achieving a resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict would do more to bring world peace than any other single event.
