Tony Blair met with the Mufti of Al-Azhar and said that he evaluated with him the stance of the "Arab street." I will not analyze the "Arab street" reference here, but of all people what makes you think that the Mufti of Al-Azhar (who throws ashtrays at journalists who ask him tough questions, and who is regularly mocked in "the Arab street") is a good spokesperson of the Arab street? No wonder these Western leaders are clueless.
