I want peace, but I trust no deal while the Assad regime is still there.

At the buffer zone, along Lake Kinneret, a park will be set up for joint use by Israelis and Syrians. The park will cover a significant portion of the Golan Heights. Israelis will be free to access the park and their presence will not be dependent on Syrian approval.

Sounds like a great place for paintball battles...

OK.................

My first reaction is pig in a poke.

There might be one outside chance, however. Maybe the Saudis persuaded Syria to throw in with the Sunni Arabs and stop messing around with Iran and the Shiite terrrorists. Maybe the Syrian regime was feeling too much pressure from all directions.

Not sure I believe that, but it's the one hopeful thing I can think of.

Never trust your sworn enemy. Syria is NEVER going to live up to their end of the bargain.

Sounds like it isn`t a non-paper but it might work well in the funny papers.
Doesn`t seem like the Israelis are putting any heat on the Rats over Iraq which makes no sense. Anybody know why?

"The document is described as a “non-paper".

Perhaps that's why I believe that this is non-real.

When they say secret, do they mean another agreement brokered by uberschlamazel Shimon Peres?

I really, really thought this was from Scrappleface.

* According to the terms, Syria will also agree to end its support for Hezbollah and Hamas and will distance itself from Iran.

If the Israelis believe this, I have a bridge in Brooklyn I want to talk about selling them and they can move it across the Jordan River for the invasion forces of A-rabs and rag heads to come thundering across.

Considering how closely tied we are with the Israelis I find it hard to believe the administration would be ratcheting up the rhetoric and pressure on Syria if this was legit.

[fat city]

Except that Syria is still dedicated to the proposition of the elimination of Israel., it's a good deal.

The Golan Heights are they crazy?

"The timetable for the withdrawal remained open: Syria demanded the pullout be carried out over a five-year period, while Israel asked for the withdrawal to be spread out over 15 years."

So it will never happen.

Most likly worth the non paper it's written on.

Look at the dates, people: "In a series of secret meetings in Europe between September 2004 and July 2006 ....... and ..... The document is described as a “non-paper,” a document of understandings that is not signed and lacks legal standing - its nature is political. It was prepared in August 2005 and has been updated during a number of meetings in Europe.

I'd say Syria's role and actions in the events of August 2006 pretty much rendered this crock of you-know-what moot. However, it might explain some of the incomprehensible insanity of the Olmert government's actions this summer.
