Catholic here. Can't tell Rick Warren from Warren Zevon, but I usually don't take the Syrian news media as a credible source of quoting anyone on anything.

The point is not whether what SANA said was accurate (probably it wasn't) but that any authoritarian regime will gladly spin things to their own purpose. Warren allowed himself to be used, probably with the best of intentions (his poverty and AIDS work, peaceful relations, etc.)

Well if he did say it it is incredibly bad timing. General Vallely says intel has the goods on Damascus and the assasinations in Lebanon. They know who did it, who he reports to and where he operates. Not good news for James Baker and his commission either.

We are supposed to negotiate with murderers, terrorists and the loon in Iran? I don't think so.

Exactly. Freepers never believe a word the MSM says until it comes to something like this. Don't be so quick to trash this man.
