In keeping with his narrow-minded view of the world, President Bush has refused to negotiate with just about anyone. This includes the European Union as we prepared to go to war in Iraq and it includes Syria, Iran and North Korea today. From Progress Report (2/23/2007)...
Today, Josh Marshall from Talking Points Memo points to the Israeli newspaper Haaretz that reports, "The United States demanded that Israel desist from even exploratory contacts with Syria, of the sort that would test whether Damascus is serious in its declared intentions to hold peace talks with Israel." "In meetings with Israeli officials recently," the paper reports, "Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice was forceful in expressing Washington's view on the matter."
