I-22 Israel now wants to talk peace ???? Why not BEFORE the war on Lebanon...

Israel wants Lebanon talks but not Syria

JERUSALEM - Prime Minister Ehud Olmert on Monday invited the Lebanese prime minister to begin peace talks following Israel's recent war against Hezbollah guerrillas, but Olmert ruled out peace talks with Syria at the present time, saying President Bashar Assad isn't a suitable negotiating partner.....

Olmert said that Israel made significant gains in its battle against the Lebanese guerrilla group. Olmert has been heavily criticized for his handling of the war, in which Hezbollah fired thousands of rockets into Israel.

******************************* Says a me comment ***************************

The real reason Olmert has asked Lebanon to attend peace talks is becasue an election is coming and he wants to remain in power...
