Syrians place their faith in Geneva II talksThis is just not true. The vast majority of Syrians reject any compromise with Assad. The independent opposition group* that is the subject of the piece is not representative, and the decision of the SNC to consider attending Geneva II is hedged around conditions that would hope to ensure a transition away from Assad, and even that has been rejected by those in Syria. 
*I can't find any other English-language reference to them. There is a group called we are all Syria on Facebook, but they seem to be FSA fans.
