This weekend's Arab League summit in Syria is falling apart.
From The Wall Street Journal Online:
Attendance at [this weekend's Arab League summit in Syria is dwindling] since Jordan today joined Saudi Arabia and Egypt in saying its head of state would stay home, apparently out of irritation at Syria's actions in Lebanon and its ties to Shiite Muslim Iran. Those three states are predominantly Sunni, unlike Iraq and Mr. Maliki's Shiite-led governing coalition, though he, too, may not be happy with alleged Syrian and Iranian interference in Iraq.
