Washington, DC – On Thursday, Barack Obama went to the State Department to “mark a new chapter in American diplomacy.” The president’s handlers boldly billed his lengthy address “A Moment of Opportunity” for the Middle East. It was neither. Instead, he delivered a naïve, revisionist lecture that was sufficiently utopian and self-centered to have been drafted by Jimmy Carter. Unfortunately, he also demanded major concessions from the only democracy in the Middle East and America’s most steadfast ally in the region, Israel.
To no one’s surprise, Mr. Obama alluded – for the 12th time in two weeks – to the death of Osama bin Laden and cleverly described the terror kingpin’s demise, the withdrawal of American troops from Iraq and the U.S. drawdown in Afghanistan, to be part of his grand design for the Middle East.

But there is a very practical side to Palestinian foreboding. Without Arafat, there is no figure who has the authority to prevent a violent struggle to succeed him.
Paradoxically, the fear of chaos and even civil war will probably produce what most Palestinians least expect: stability, at least in the near term. Different Palestinian factions -- whether in Fatah, Hamas or Islamic Jihad -- will not want to look as though they are responsible for a descent into fratricide. As a result, violence during the transition is likely to be contained.
What the people want
The good news is that the Palestinian public will want elections. Already, 67% of Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza have registered to vote in difficult circumsta
