#1 SYRIA: "Prime Minster Ehud Olmert's defeated and weak government is not a partner for negotiations," a senior Syrian diplomat said Friday in response to a report that Olmert was willing to hold direct peace negotiations with Syria and give up the Golan Heights.

wow for real, i did not even see this article last night, just read it now!

*OK, I'll speculate anew. ["giving Olmert to much credit"]

The primary purpose of Olmert's new Golan Height's PR fluff job, is to sop Israel's own Peacniks and the bleeding heart Y'urp-peons both.

Because the Pin Head As'ad is riding pretty high right now he doesn't have to jump at Olmert's offer, and if As'ad eventually accepts it, well Olmert can easily at his leisure inject a poison pill during the negotiations and kill it.

anyone up on the back channel rumors?
