Good luck Mr. Blair
"Outgoing British Prime Minister Tony Blair will be named on Wednesday as special envoy for the international diplomatic Quartet on the Middle East with a portfolio focused on Palestinian economic and political reform, a senior U.S. official said.
Members of the quartet, the United States, United Nations, European Union and Russia, will give their public blessing and announce that Blair has agreed to take the job in simultaneous statements from their capitals and New York, the official told The Associated Press." (msnbc)

"Monday?s summit at an Egyptian resort on the Red Sea was meant to bolster Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas..."
I swear they should just make Sharm the capital of the Arab world. I mean, whenever there is great political turmoil in the ME or some sort of Summit, its time for the Arab leader to hop on a plane to Sharm!
A resort on the Red Sea kind of takes the edge off of the whole ordeal.

He's into a mission impossible. The problem is hard enough but now he has to deal with the Dark Prince too ("Cheney").

Someone joked on BBC's Dateline London - Blair and Clinton should start their own company and privatise the entire middle east peace process.
