Just who exactly is a moderate Arab leader that can impact positively on his constituency?
It was widely known that US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice's latest trip to the region was not going to achieve anything, because both Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas lack grassroots support.
Thus, no matter that Condi paid lip service to supporting Abbas, or that her words were preceded by Abbas's call to arms.
This trip really didn't impact on anything except traffic in the center of Jerusalem.
