    Syria also need to fess up to any chemical weapon labs or Iraqi Ba'athists stashed in their territory, also.

    At this point though, I wouldn't be in favor of invading them.

    I am a little tempted, though...

        The sad thing is, there are actually people who believe invading Syria is a good idea. Good grief... are you trying to make everyone pissed off at you?

          Six, So long as Syria ends terrorism and cooperates on ME peace, they will have earned the right to be ignored. If they continue their policy of aggression, they will provoke a war - most likely with Israel.

          If the Arabs want Israel to stay out of it, well ....

          But is Assad as stupid as Saddam?

            Afghanistan isn't newsworthy, because the flash and bang are done with, and who cares about the dirty little details of what happens in crappy little excuses for third world countries?

            This is the war on terrorism, that'll last as long as we say! We're liberating people left and right, so don't be party poopers!





            In other words, don't expect anything other than the same old BS in US foreign policy in that part of the world.
            Well, you gotta admit though, with this Iraq thing FINALLY clearing out of the way, it's going to free up alot of other resources to go after these problems.

            I believe the Israeli-Palestinian issue will be dealt with next.

              I don't recall that the Bush plan has been published. Is what Sharon is doing required by the plan?

              Actually, no. a preliminary step demanded by the Road map is the freezing of the construction of new settlements, Not the evacuation.

              I heard it over on TV. for some reason, everyone talks about the new economic plan, and the war on iraq now, so noone cares here.

                Assad is quite similar, IMO.
