Pelosi’s Trip as Reported in Syria

From the Syrian Arab News Agency. While Pelosi says she raised Hezbollah, Hamas, and other tough issues, what would be useful is if she—and others, Democrats or Republicans, who travel to Syria—would give a public press conference on those issues from Damascus. After all, the Baathist regime is open to dialogue, they say. She might also ask to visit any of the prisoners of conscience who languish in Syrian prisons.
