Arab Summit

NPR's Kate Seelye in Amman reports Arab leaders denounced Israel at the conclusion of a two-day summit conference in the Jordanian capital. The summit approved $240 million in new aid for the Palestinians. But the meeting failed to reach consensus on a demand by Iraq for an end to the United Nations economic sanctions that were imposed after the 1990 invasion of Kuwait.
