Newsday.com<\/a>:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00abInternal strife within the Baker commission, outright opposition from President George W. Bush and Tuesday’s assassination of a cabinet member in Lebanon are complicating the prospect of U.S. overtures to Syria and Iran over Iraq, informed sources say.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbA source who spoke recently to a leader of the Iraq Study Group said he complained bitterly about internal dissension and partisanship among members of the supposedly bipartisan group, and was worried about reaching consensus on the key issues.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t()<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\t\u00bbPhebe Marr, an Iraq expert who advised the Baker group, said that while she favors approaching Iran and Syria for help, the United States would have to make concessions to each country. There is a price for that, and it is not clear to me the Bush administration is willing to pay it, she said. The latest events in … [Lebanon] make this even more difficult, Marr said. She said it is also unclear how able the two countries are to stop the fighting in Iraq.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbAnother Iraq expert who advised the Baker group said there has been a lot of fighting among the expert advisers to the group, mainly between neoconservatives and more conventional cold warriors’ who want to take a more pragmatic approach to the Middle East. A recent proposal by neocon scholar Robert Caking that Washington send 50,000 more troops to Iraq rather than begin withdrawing generated heated discussion on a Web site used by the experts, she said.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
