Israeli President Moshe Katzav shook the hand of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and spoke in Persian with Iranian President Mohammad Khatami Friday at the pope’s funeral, public radio reported. After the funeral, the Syrian leader took the initiative to shake Katsav’s hand a second time, the radio said. Syria is officially at war with Israel, while Iran does not recognise the Jewish state. During the brief exchange of words between Khatami and Katsav, the two leaders discussed the Iranian town of Yazd where they were both born. In recent months, Israel has been pressing a diplomatic offensive against both Tehran and Damascus, accusing both of supporting radical elements bent on destroying the Jewish State. Iran is considered to be Israel’s most dangerous enemy because of its controversial nuclear programme. Israel has recently rejected Syrian peace overtures, demanding that Damascus stop its support for radical Palestinian groups as well as for the Lebanese Shiite militia group Hezbollah, which is also backed by Iran. afp
