In that periodic impulse to pull Syria away from their long-standing alliance with Iran, our Defense Intelligence Agency asserts without any proof that Syria could be ripe with the proper concessions.
At one time, I thought our victories in Iraq could persuade Syria to flip as a regime survival ploy--not as a result of American concessions. But I became convinced that Syria has yoked their regime to Iran's star and is nothing but West Iran now.
The only question is how surpised President Obama will be when he's lying flat on his back staring up at Lucy holding the ball.
