Because there's a connection between Syria and terrorism and murder and mayhem in each of these three different areas.
Adam Ereli
Syria can't be important unless it plays its regional cards. This country is not wealthy and it doesn't have enough oil to be influential. We are playing the role of a bad student at school. If you don't make trouble, no one will pay attention to you.

Recep Tayyip Erdogan
Innocent people are getting blown up in Iraq because Syria is allowing its territory to be used by terrorists bent on sowing murder and mayhem in Iraq. And they're not going to succeed. The international community is not going to let this continue to happen.

Adam Ereli
This [arrest] is Syria's way of saying that we're ready for a deal - of course, a backdoor deal.... They are not ready for public humiliation.
