Naivete on Parade in Middle East

It's bad when even the Washington Post takes a liberal to task.

Such is the case with Nancy Pelosi's juvenile trip to Syria. She misrepresented the United State, and misrepresented Israel.

With regards to Syrian president Assad's "peace talk," the Post says

In other words, Ms. Pelosi not only misrepresented Israel's position but was virtually alone in failing to discern that Mr. Assad's words were mere propaganda.


As any diplomat with knowledge of the region could have told Ms. Pelosi, Mr. Assad is a corrupt thug whose overriding priority at the moment is not peace with Israel but heading off U.N. charges that he orchestrated the murder of former Lebanese prime minister Rafiq al-Hariri.


In a stunningly balanced analysis, the Post concludes:

We have found much to criticize in Mr. Bush's military strategy and regional diplomacy. But Ms. Pelosi's attempt to establish a shadow presidency is not only counterproductive, it is foolish.
