Israel rejects Syrian offer for peace talks
Israel turns down Assad's call for peace talks.Assad is just striking out left and right these days. First, the US rejection of Syria's call for a WMD-free Middle East and now this.
But why would Israel summarily reject this offer?"It was decided that treatment of the matter would be delayed until Syria's true domestic and international situation becomes clear in the fallout of the Iraqi war," an Israeli official said.Possibly waiting for the US to depose Assad and install a puppet who wouldn't keep demanding the Golan?
