"If you think what's going on in the Middle East today would be going on if the Democrats were in control, it wouldn't, because we would have worked day after day after day to make sure we didn't get where we are today. We would have had the moral authority that Bill Clinton had when he brought together the Northern Irish and the IRA, when he brought together the Israelis and the Palestinians." ---DNC Chairman Howard Dean
If Clinton had accomplished anything of substance with the Israelis and Palestenians, the situation on the ground would look quite different right now. He did not. Also, his comparison of Ireland to the Middle East is faulty. The situation in Ireland had a certain political stability to it that the situation currently in the Middle East does not.
