"One obvious implication of Turkey's decisions to side with Iran against Washington in the nuclear standoff and to dismantle its strategic partnership with Israel is that any role for Ankara as a mediator on the Israeli-Syrian peace track is now over, at least as long as Erdogan's Justice and Development Party (AKP) is in power."

That always seemed odd to me. That Israel was doing Turkey such a huge favor by allowing it to mediate a dispute Israel has no intention of ever resolving.

I mean, who benefits more from peace with Syria? Israel? Or Turkey?
