(cartoon from Truthdig)Condi Rice is headed back to the holy lands on Saturday to "broker peace." Somehow the American press can say "Bush Administration" and "broker peace" in the same sentence without any apparent sense of irony. It would be like reporting that the Corleone family sent Luca Brazzi to Brooklyn to "broker peace" with the Barzinis.
You have to go back to Dr. Henry Kissinger to find an American secretary of state as incompetent and delusional as Dr. Rice. That she could become Secretary of State after her shameful performance in front of the 9/11 Commission says much about the values of the current administration.
