Syria is considering thinking about talking to Jews just to get the US off their back:
Syria is considering renewing peace negotiations with Israel in an attempt to deflect Western pressure over its alleged involvement in the assassination of a former Lebanese prime minister, British daily The Guardian reported on Thursday. According to the report, Saudi Arabia’s King Abdullah urged Syrian president Bashar Assad at an Islamic Conference Organization summit in Mecca on Wednesday to restart the talks, which broke down in 2000.
We have a proposal: since Syria is in a position of weakness and Israel is in a position of strength – that is, since Syria needs to sign a formal peace agreement with Israel a lot more than Israel needs to sign a formal peace agreement with Syria – Israel should offer Syria a land for peace bargain. Israel will agree to normalize relations with Syria for, say, 30km of Syrian land on the base of the Golan.
