Why Wouldn't You Talk To Syria?

Condi goes all the way to the Middle East and then refuses to talk to the country that the Bush Administration says is causing all the trouble by suppling Hezbollah. Why?

Why wouldn't you talk to Syria if for no other reason than to tell them to cut it out. The only way Syria can hurt Israel is to continue to supply Hezbollah.

They couldn't stop the Israelis from flying right over their president's home. So they're obviously in no position to go to war with the Israelis.

We're missing a great opportunity to split them off from Iran.
