Israel The Appeaser?

My, my. Israel is holding talks with Syria.

Israel and Syria announced on Wednesday that they were engaged in negotiations for a comprehensive peace treaty through Turkish mediators, a sign that Israel is hoping to halt the growing influence of Iran, Syria’s most important ally, which sponsors the anti-Israel groups Hezbollah and Hamas.

Are they "appeasers?" If they can talk to their enemies, so can we. I think it's time we "stand down" when it comes to Israel because it is pretty clear that they can "stand up" for themselves.
