"26/11/2007 "Syria will attend the Annapolis conference in order to examine the US's commitment to peace," according to Monday's editorial in Syria's official daily newspaper Teshreen......
"Syria will be part of the consensus which aims to force Israel to follow International and Arab principles for peace, and to foil [Israeli Prime Minister Ehud] Olmert's plan to force Arab countries to recognize Israel as a Jewish state," the article read.
Also on Monday, the London-based Arabic daily Al-Quds Al-Arabi quoted Arab diplomatic sources as saying that Saudi pressure prompted Syria's announcement that it will be participating in the Annapolis conference.....The Saudis headed the group of nations which requested that Washington soften its approach to Syria, the sources said, adding that one of the motivations for Syria's attendance was to slacken US pressure on Damascus."

What can you say to such mendacity and duplicity? The analogy that comes to mind is that of a seasoned whore who says that she sleeps with her clients just to prove that they are not honorable men!
