Can you process this?

U.S. official: Peace effort aimed at lessening Arab, EU pressure - From Haaretz :
U.S. Deputy National Security Advisor Elliott Abrams on Thursday told a group of Jewish Republicans that the efforts the United States is now investing in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is aimed at lessening the pressure from Arabs and the Europeans, who weren't happy with the United States in its past approach.

Abrams was quoted by sources present at the meeting as saying Arab and European states want to see that there's at least an attempt or energy being exerted by the U.S. to move the peace process forward.

Abrams explained that the talks are sometimes not more than 'process for the sake of process.'


That's the same Elliott Abrams of Iran-Contra fame. What does it take to put a stake through his heart?
