AP - Damascus -- Speaking in Damascus, Syria, today, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said she enjoyed her clitorectomy very much, and that Syria is now ready to make peace with Israel.

"All the Syrians ask is that the entire Jewish population of Israeli walk into the sea and drown, and Syria is ready and willing to make peace," Pelosi said. "That seems reasonable to me."

Isreali Prime Minister Yahud Olmert responded that, "The chick is nuts."

The White House had originally asked Pelosi to forego her diplomatic efforts with Syria, but now has retracted its statements to that effect.

"This is just too rich," one White House spokesman said. "We're kinda hoping she goes to Iran next."
