A few days before he left on his eight-country world tour, Barack Obama wanted to discuss the trip with an old contact in Washington: Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. Obama's phone call was in part a courtesy, but over three years of occasional phone conversations, the two have quietly discussed everything from foreign aid to the Middle East and nuclear proliferation. Obama and Rice have come to have a certain respect for each other, says an Obama aide familiar with their conversations, because both take an intellectual, sober view of foreign affairs. "They've had good exchanges," the aide says. "Does... ... Source: archive.gulfnews.com --- 3 days ago

Western leaders have invested much time and energy into finding a path to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. This is in large part a response to pressure from Arab states, who have impressed upon Western leaders their view that Western support for Israel is the chief cause of hostility towards the West. Yet when offered the chance to play a constructive role, the Arab states do not act in a manner consistent with a desire to assist Western efforts. Last December, Western and Arab governments agreed upon a plan to help prop up the West Bank Palestinian Authority as an alternative to Hamas, because, unlike the intractable Hamas, it is viewed as a partner in any future peace agreement with Israel. Wealthy Arab states pledged to provide a large share of the needed funds. A Jerusalem Post article on July 31, 2008 highlights the fact that the Arab states have so far reneged on their commitment despite desperate appeals for help from Palestinian President Abbas and Prime Minister Salam. According to the Post , the Arab states have set as a condition for providing the promised aid that the more moderate West Bank leadership bury its differences with Hamas, the Islamist organization irrevocably opposed to peace with Israel.

You've heard of Ping-Pong Diplomacy, right? Well today here in Beijing, we got a instance of it, though instead of breaking down diplomatic barriers, the only result of today's table tennis exhibition between President George H.W. Bush and a group of table tennis players was fun for everyone involved. This all went down at Beijing Normal University, where most of the American athletes here are training before and during the Games. Thanks to a stubborn boxing coach, who kicked our interview out of the pugilists' lair, we ended up in the judo training room -- which happened to be adjacent to the table tennis room. WATCH VIDEO On his way in to meet Matt and the rest of us, President Bush couldn't help himself and hit a few balls with the U.S. team, which, ironically, is comprised entirely of Chinese-American players. WEB-EXTRA VIDEO President Bush is serving as the Honorary Captain of the U.S. Olympic Team, and he's clearly enjoying the role, relishing the chance to interact with as many American athletes as possible. Beijing is a particularly apt place to interview President Bush, since he served for 14 months as the head of the U.S. Liaison Office here in 1974-75. That was a time before the U.S. and China had formal relations, so instead of Bush being the Ambassador to China and working out of the U.S. Embassy, there was neither an ambassador nor an embassy. Much of President Bush's time during that period was spent playing sports ...
