Crimson > It seems that the Syrian foreign policy is finally becoming pragmatic and interest-oriented rather then ideology-driven. Apparently, Syria decided to cut all support to the Kurds. After decades of supporting Kurdish movements, activists and opposition figures in Iraq and Turkey (who in return turned against Syria with total obedience to the neo-cons on anti-Syria policy), Syria finally and wisely decided that Turkey is much more important. This is very, very interesting. As we know, about 15% of Kurds live in Syria and it is self-evident that they would want to participate in the re-constitution of the "new" Kurdistan from Kurdish areas in Iraq, Turkey, Syria and Iran. This, of course, is the neocon intention and has to be one of the reasons behind the US invasion of Iraq. Of course, Turkish friendship with Syria automatically makes it a foe of both Israel and the US and puts a great deal of strain on Turkey's previously very cordial relationships with both countries. Clearly, it's a very delicate and a very complex situation.
