By Yoav Stern and Barak Ravid : Olmert, Assad to sit together at Med summit, handshake or not
Talkback
Title: Even if Assad is sincere... Name: Jean Van Daem City: Metula State:
Even if Assad is sincere he will not be able to keep his engagements! Agreements in the past and future with Egypt, Jordan and the Palestinian Authority are either reversible or did not cost much. But with Syria, the situation will be different: From being an empty buffer zone, the Golan Heights will turn into a crowded anti-Israel region for generations to come. From being a strategic asset to Israel, the Golan will turn into a burden on top of the other regional efforts to eliminate Israel. Our future generations will not forgive anyone who would do that. We do not have the right to abandon the Golan Hights as explained at : http://israelagainstterror.blogspot.com/2008/05/clear-and-present-danger.html
