Please tell me what's the problem with Syria so that you call it "rogue". I currently see only one argument why Syria is bad, that is because it supported Hesballah. Otherwise it is a quite typical state.
In 2008 Assad wanted to sign a peace treaty with Israel and open embassies, but the USA did not allow for that.
