'arab leader?' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.

'talk about wobbly rear as handsome' is the wordplay.
'talk' becomes 'say' (I've seen this in another clue).
'about' is a reversal indicator.
'wobbly' indicates an anagram (I've seen this in other clues).
'handsome' becomes 'fat' (both can describe a generous amount).
'say' backwards is 'yas'.
'rear'+'as'='rearas'
'rearas' anagrammed gives 'serara'.
'yas'+'serara'+'fat'='YASSER ARAFAT'

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for yasser arafat that I've seen is " Former Palestinian leader".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
