John Kerry in Jerusalem for Mideast Peace Talks

Trying to fail where others have failed before

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry shuttled between Israelis and Palestinians Friday in his latest diplomatic mission to coax the two sides back to the negotiating table and revive the Mideast peace process.

Kerry returned to Jerusalem for second visit in less than 24 hours after a 2½-hour meeting with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in Amman, Jordan, Kerry's base of operations during his stop in the Middle East.
