U.S. Senator at Mideast Forum Tells Arabs to Focus on Injustices in Their Own Countries
(AP/ABC News) Mariam Fam - Sen. Gordon Smith (R-Ore.) on Saturday advised Arab leaders at a World Economic Forum in Amman, Jordan, to focus on injustices in their own countries. "It's a mystery to me why Arab countries can't work on their own countries before Palestine is fixed," he said. "Obviously one of the greatest commitments that we have is to the Jewish people and the State of Israel, to try and manage the difficult process of the peace there and securing that nation, and doing so in a way that, if possible, is just to the Palestinians," Smith said.
