Stories under the fold

Nancy Pelosi might not know a Shiite from a Sunni, but she took Tom Lantos with her, and he laid it on the line in Syria..."Tom Lantos, the chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said he asked Mr. Assad how someone “of his intelligence and knowledge of the world could have common cause with President Ahmadinejad of Iran, who has denied the Holocaust and calls for the elimination of Israel.”
HERE Tom Lantos was quoted as saying:

“..Assad should be given a final opportunity to disengage from the “axis of evil.” Lantos said that in a few years, Sunni Muslims and not Iran under Mahmoud Ahmadinejad will be in control in the region, and it is to the advantage of Damascus to know which side to be on.

I argue HERE that the tide is turning...at least in some ways.
