Syria and Iran: A Steep Price for Helping Troubled Iraq

The Jerusalem Post reports that Syria will require a steep price for help in calming Iraq. That price relates to the Golan Heights that were lost to Israel when Syria attacked Israel in 1967.

Ahmadinejad also insinuated a price: stop the “bullying policy toward Iran.” Ahmadinejad went on to proclaim that America misled the world as to its motives for toppling Saddam Hussein. Ahmadinejad believes the true motives for the Iraq invasion was to control Iraq’s oil. Like Saddam was not providing oil to the West. Can we all say United Nations oil for food scandal? Thank you very much Kofi Annan.

I am a little concerned America is slipping into European “Appeasement” mode. Does anyone realize negotiating with Syria and Iran is like validating the terrorism those two rogue nations have faithfully exported to the Middle East.
