CNN.com - Rice criticizes Syria at Mideast summit - Nov 12, 2005: "Many Middle East nations are wary of Bush's second-term democracy agenda for the region. Some organizations that the administration has tried to engage are reluctant to take money from the U.S.
'It would be a disaster for this region if the region thought democracy is an American idea,' British Foreign Secretary Jack Straw said at the closing press conference, where the final agreement had been expected to be released.
'America is a great country but democracy was born in Greece, just across the Mediterranean' from the Middle East, Straw said."
