#8 I think Ehud wants Syria to "come to the rescue" in Leb and clamp down on Hizballah. That was the situation prior to the March 14 uprising, when Syria controlled Lebanon. A policy which will probably prove too clever by half I don't know. The impression I get is that it's preferable to have a known enemy, any known enemy, in charge of the country, than the present situation. |

#4 "Olmert said that Israel intends to conduct negotiations on both the Syrian and Palestinian tracks, with neither coming at the expense of the other. " Not at the expense of each other, from Israels POV, but with added leverage in each one from the existence of the other. |

#3 Ummm, we want them to stop trying to kill us all via their proxies. They want to kill us all. Seems like an easy negotiation to me. Compromise and let them kill half of you. (do I need a sarc tag?) |

#1 But we know there are things that we don't know, and they know we don't know those things. That much remains clear. |
