Opinion

It would be nice to get some peace in one part of the middle east, though it hedges who will be the New Prime Minister of Israel. Let's hope a positive comes out of all this, for everyones sake.

Syria gives Israeli peace proposals to Turkish mediators, President says
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DAMASCUS, Syria - Syrian President Bashar Assad has disclosed that his country has handed proposals for peace with Israel to Turkish mediators.
He says he's waiting for Israel's response before holding any face-to-face negotiations. The talks have so far been indirect, through Turkish mediation.
Assad says the future of negotiations rests on who becomes prime minister in Israel and whether the new leader will be committed to pursuing peace with Syria.

It sounds like a daring move. At least there appears to be a hand out.
Let's hope they get talking and (for a change) listening.

Thanks Mettacara and Dunk for your flags and comments, as they say, one never learns anything by talking, so lets hope they listen for a change.
