(The hall normally seats about 100 people but was packed with 1,000; firefighters showed up to remove doors to cool the place down.) Her goal is grander than the instant results demanded by her critics. She says she is after nothing less than a changed Middle East, which requires more than a cease-fire that could quickly be breached.
