While Likud leader Shamir proved often to be an aloof and incompetent player when it came to making coalitions, the construction worker with an eighth grade education was able to enter doors closed on the aging prime minister.

Bill Clinton - Presidential campaign.
Clinton's first foray into national politics occurred when he was enlisted to speak at the 1988 Democratic National Convention, introducing candidate Michael Dukakis.

| | | | | | | Oslo Accords: Encyclopedia II - Arab-Israeli conflict - Reasons for the conflict The Arab-Israeli conflict is the result of numerous factors. Reasons cited for the conflict therefore vary from participant to participant and observer to observer. A powerful example of this divide can be found in opinion surveys of Palestinians and Israelis. In a March, 2005 poll 63% of the Israelis blamed the failure of the Oslo Peace Process on Palestinian violence, but only 5% of the Palestinians agreed. 54% of Palestinians put the blame on Israeli policies, but only 20% of the Israelis agreed.[11] It is therefore difficult to develop a single, objective reason for the conflict, so ...

Palestinian legislative election 2006 - Fatah.
The PLC is currently dominated by the Fatah movement, which holds 68 of the 88 seats. However, Fatah has been beset by internal strife in advance of the 2006 elections, with younger figures like Mohammed Dahlan and Marwan Barghouti (the latter currently serving five life sentences in an Israeli jail on terrorism charges) levelling allegations of corruption against Fatah leadership.
