I've Been Thinking:
Iran is hosting Russia and Syria in a peace summit this week.
The results of the summit will be presented to the United Nations as a peace proposal for Syria.
Now, there is noMicah@MicahHalpern.com doubt that Syria has suffered horrific carnage over the past 4 years. But how can any country, let alone Iran, hope to compose a deal with only one side in attendance - and no one has invited the anti-Assad rebels to participate.
Iran has supported Assad of Syria from the very outset of the conflict. So has Russia. So whatever the agreed upon proposal is, it will certainly be biased towards Assad.
Most interesting than the outcome of the peace summit, - is the host of the peace summit and the participants.
Iran has turned itself into the peacemaker. Russia is the international team leader. Where is the United States?
From the point of view of this summit, the United States is on the outs, not necessary, to be ignored.
