Bush: Assad Must Wait
(Washington Times)- President Bush wants Israel to make peace with the Palestinians before considering Syria's offer of talks, Yediot Ahronot newspaper reported Sunday. Washington correspondent Orly Azulai reported she asked Bush about Syria during a reception for journalists. Syria is a very weak state, that is why it cannot be trusted, the president reportedly said. Now Assad must wait: First peace between Israel and Palestine and then we'll see what to do with Syria, Bush reportedly added.

"I am convinced that, during this term, I will manage to bring peace." "It is very important that the Palestinians also understand that peace is not something that is arrived at through words, but through deeds," said Bush. (Telegraph-UK)
