Actually, now might be a good time to talk to Assad. I hear there is some real friction between Syria and Iran at this moment and we should take advantage of that.

I agree, but I think we should draw the line at the Golan Heights, unless Israel is represented at the talks as well. Cutting Israel out of the talks when it comes to land under their control is a mistake similar to Chamberlain's when he cut up Czechoslovakia in the 30's. It sets a dangerous precedent.

And maybe that is pure make believe BS to keep us talking and buy time for Iran to finish getting the Bomb.

The US “demands” should be given to terrorist Assad though some Arab governments such as Saudi Arabia. The demands should be as follow:

1. Immediately stop giving any type of support to terrorists in Iraq and those terrorists coming to Iraq form Syria.

2. Immediately surrender all the Baath leadership hiding in Syria.

3. Immediately surrender all your WMD weapons and stop all your WMD programs. If you have Saddam regime WMD or the precursors to make WMD you must surrender it immediately.

3. Immediately stop funding and supporting Hizballah terrorists in Lebanon, Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorist groups in the Palestinian territories.

4. Immediately stop any interference in Lebanon affairs.

5. Immediately surrender all the people in your ruling terrorist regime including yourself for your assassination of Lebanese leaders who including Lebanese PM Rafik Al Hariri.
