Obama's First Phone Call
In a follow-up to Jill's post from yesterday, Barack Obama's first phone call to a foreign dignitary was to Palestinian President Mahmud Abbas, most likely indicating that he intends to really focus on the Middle East. Could he broker a peace deal where no others have been able to before? It is a daunting task, but there's so much hope floating around right now, who knows?

let us hope that he will take care of the United States security and our problems at home, before trying to "save" the Middle East populations. These people have been killing each other for over 1000 yrs. Why don't we just let the winner take all. The only thing they have that the rest of the world wants is OIL.
