The dumbest campaign proposal of 2008

Barack Obama says he wants to have a summit with all the heads of state of Muslim countries. (You heard that right - all Muslim countries.) That includes Libya, Syria, Iran, and presumably, the Palestinian Authority. Can you get any more idiotic? In the first place, the US should encourage friendship among our allies in the middle east, especially the democracies. You don't accomplish that by having our allies sit at a table with Assad from Syria and the Crazy Man from Iran. And second, if there a quicker way for Obama to throw Israel under the bus, I don't know what it would be. Rantburg and Michael Goldfarb weigh in.
