I've Been Thinking

Ahmadinejad of Iran and Assad of Syria had a phone conversation on Friday. The conversation was made public by the official Iranian press. Ahmadinejad was coaxing the Syrian leader. Ahmadinejad was assuring Assad that they would win over the West. Ahmadinejad said that a united Islamic world would be strong. Ahmadinejad said that the current world conditions will hurt the United States and the "Zionists" and it will help Muslims.

Here are some of the quotes: "The strong camp of friendly countries such as Iran and Syria are on their way to victory."
"The regional conditions are working in favor of the Muslim countries and against the Zionist regime and its allies."

Ahmadinejad used important images from the Koran. He referred to Muslims as being "in the same fortress." He asserted that they can "take advantage of abilities and opportunities in a wise manner" and in so doing defeat "the criminals of the Zionist regime (which) will eventually be put to death."

This sliver of Muslim diplomatic dialogue is very helpful. We were given a behind-the-scenes look at the true relationship between Syria and Iran.
