		<description><![CDATA[It’s a sad reality of the Middle East that moderates have short life spans. In the summer of 1951, rumors began circulating that Lebanon and Jordan were discussing a joint peace deal with Israel. That July, both Jordan’s king, Abdullah I, and Lebanon’s former prime minister, Riad Bey al-Solh, were assassinated. In 1979, Egypt’s president, [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=brogsblog.wordpress.com&amp;blog=13219675&amp;post=368&amp;subd=brogsblog&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
