US Better Off Not Courting Syria
US ambassador in Damascus reveals new American strategy towards Syria recognised as "a player in the Middle East." ++ Five years after Lebanese president's assassination, the Cedar revolution is definitely buried away. ++ New American diplomacy embraces promises from dictator Bashar Al-Assad to make peace with Israel, distance himself from his military and financial supporter, the Tehran regime as well as disengage from Hassan Nasrallah. ++ This is indeed very naïve from Obama.
