The United States, along with the European Union and Arab states, will work with Palestinian leaders to create a new constitutional framework and a working democracy for the Palestinian people.

We'll see how much support for democratization is forthcoming from the non-democratic (read "all'") Arab states in the Middle East.

This goal also flies directly in the face of those railing against the products of the Enlightenment. To the Islamists, a democratic outcome would be a disaster. And, where does this leave the Western radical left -- will they oppose a western democratic solution?
