Mr Olmert reached out to Syria only after America's president George W Bush gave the green light in an hour-long phone conversation last month. The prime minister's office would neither confirm nor deny the reports.

Yet another reason to be disappointed in our "great" leader. How he thinks appeasement will really result in peace is beyond me. That goes for Israel and US. Sigh......

Both Pres. Bush & Olmert have so much in common right now. Both are polling lower among their respective countrymen then any other leader in history. I suggest the reasons why are, 1.) they are allowing military lawyers run the wars instead of the warriors, and 2.) they are giving away the sovereignty of both countries, each in their own way. One to Mexico & SPP & the other with land for peace.
