...Serbia is becoming increasingly violent, and virulent nationalism is on the rise again. There have been more than 100 politically motivated assaults in the past three months alone, and hate speech is increasingly common in the media and politics.

The deal seems obvious: Syria gets back the Golan Heights. Israel gets recognized. Hamas gets the boot. Two years ago, Syrian President Bashar Assad told me he wanted to reopen talks with the Israelis. When I asked Olmert about Assad...
