Secret meetings

Ha’aretz reports: “In a series of secret meetings in Europe between September 2004 and July 2006, Syrians and Israelis formulated understandings for a peace agreement between Israel and Syria.”

And also: “The Syrian Foreign Ministry Tuesday denied a Haaretz report that understandings for a peace agreement between Israel and Syria were formulated in a series of secret meetings in Europe between September 2004 and July 2006, calling the account 'completely false.'"

I wouldn’t bet on a peace agreement in the near future. War is the safest bet.
