Looks like the neocons’ plans<\/a> to go after Syria next<\/a> is progressing apace…<\/p>\n

Only the United States stood behind Israel tonight in the face of international condemnation of the reprisal air raid on Syria that plunged the Mideast into deeper turmoil. President George Bush reiterated that Israel has the right to defend itself but urged restraint. The air attack, on a terror training camp said Israel, led Syria to demand UN Security Council condemnation of Israel a move Washington is likely to veto.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The dictatorial Syrian regime–and dictatorial it most decidedly is–had to be struck after a Jenin woman lawyer, who has probably never visited Damascus in her life, blew herself and 19 innocent Israelis up in Haifa. And why not? If America can strike Afghanistan for the international crimes against humanity of 11 September 2001, when 15 of the 19 hijackers were Saudis, and if America can invade Iraq, which had absolutely nothing to do with 11 September, why shouldn’t Israel strike Syria?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

<\/a>I note that Israel’s decision to attack Syria on the 30th Anniversary of the 1973 Arab-Israeli War<\/a> also gets them massive props among their more war-crazy citizens. Of course, this means that Syria and Israel will probably once again escalate their use of poor Lebanon as a sparring ground.<\/p>\n
