Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has urged Syria to restart direct peace talks between the two countries. He said "I am ready to sit with you and talk about peace not war".
Do you think the syrians are serious, can they be trusted or are they even worth the effort?

I like to walk and when I was last time in Leb, I tried to use legs instead of car whenever was possible :) funny enough, when I took longer walks with girl, every while somebody stopped and wanted to take us with car. and when I said "thanks, it's OK, we're just walking", their face got some "weird" look like "are you OK, people?" :)))

I've just read that bank robberies have sky-rocketed. I used to work in a bank as a language consultant and was involved in two robberies, but those days the banks didn't have any bullet-proof glass! How do these guys do it? Last time I was in South Africa, I couldn't even get an interview for a home-loan because I didn't have any identification!

I really love languages. Do you know of any expressions used in daily life these days that are truly South African? I'd like to catch up. "Cakes 4 Africa" posted a nice link, but I'm looking for some new ones!

Another thing, is this phrase now used internationally? I've seen it come up in the encyclopedia, but has it been recognized as an English word yet? I only ask because I hear many foreigners use it these days.

Do you ever bow your head in shame when the news of the rape of babies younger than a year and the elderly is aired on international news channels?
Are you proud to have a state president who labels his citizens who have an opinion as racists?
When our state president openly states that HIV does not cause AIDS and that Beetroot and African Potatoe is a cure for those viruses', are you still proud?
Having murder rates 8 times higher than the world average is a good reflection on an immoral society and more to be proud of?
Maybe our record of supporting gross humans rights violators such as Iran, Russia, China, Zimbabwe and the Palestinians that has made us the laughing stock of the free world would be a great reason to be proud?
Do you look forward to supporting our own version of the All Blacks rugby team, weekend after weekend, defeat after defeat, humiliation after humiliation?
Or you will you merely choose to have a braai while it is still affordbale and ignore reality?

Beyond the half a dozen or so sites that they always show to tourists can anyone recommend any underrated places to see in the Golan?

Particularly in the fields of archeology and nature

PS—please leave the politics out of this question; there are plenty of other questions on this site where you can voice your political opinion. I ask you politely not to do it on this one.
