CAIRO - The Arab League has proven largely ineffective in addressing any of the multitude of problems plaguing the region for the greater part of the last half-century. Peace talks between Israelis and Palestinians are stumbling, Syria and Saudi Arabia are at loggerheads over the Lebanese presidential crisis, and the killing in Darfur continues unchecked; in short, there is an abundance of pessimism in the region and the Arab League has been incapable of offering any solutions.
