WASHINGTON (AP) - Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert told a visiting group of U.S. lawmakers to relay to Syria that Israel had no intention of attacking it, according to one of the participants on the trip, Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minn.
"He very clearly said he was worried that Syria might misinterpret some things that were happening in Israel, and he didn't want to end up in an accidental war with them," Ellison, the first Muslim member of Congress, said in a telephone interview Saturday. "So he told us to tell them that he was not planning to attack them."
Ellison said Olmert was concerned that if Syria believed that Israel was planning an attack, the Syrians would make preparations to defend against one, and then a conflict could be provoked if something unexpected happened at the border.
The Israeli embassy in Washington had no immediate comment on Ellison's account (I SWEAR.....IT. THIS KRONG POSITION YOU HAVE PUT ME....DISGUTE ME....WHATEVER....). There was no answer at the Syrian embassy on Saturday.
