WASHINGTON — The Bush administration said Monday it will consider diplomatic, economic and other steps against Syria because of concerns that Damascus is harboring fleeing Iraqi leaders and has tested chemical weapons.

Well from what i am seeing and hearing i think they are hiding alot and possibly quite a bit seeing how France has already spoke against Bush making the comments he has about Syria?
And imo if they are which i think they are then the same rules need to apply to them as they have for Afganistan and Saddams regime....
Its time to put some pressure on Syria and if they still dont listen then its time we pay them a visit as well.

That's why I asked this morning if Syria was going to be problem. I think they are. More going on there than most realize. But Pres. Bush is on the ball. He'll do whatever needs to be done. Watch out Syria, here we come.

Well from what i have heard from one person that went to Syria it is ran alot like Iraq was...Plus like Iraq they have the Baath party rule as well as a Dictator....Like Iraq was you are not allowed to speak out against the Government and its former leader was evidently as bad as Saddam in which now His son runs the country so i imagine its not any better....
Thats all i know of right now..

Maybe we could have the Army do a left turn (Syria) and the Marines take a right (Iran). That way France and others could do all their complaining at once :-)

If we FOLD in our effort to remove terrorism, root and branch, it will negate the gains and the LIVES LOST in liberating IRAQ :x If you don't find the rodents and be rid of them, the plague will return :o And we all know how upstanding the leaders in Damascus are :roll:
