#4 The Paleos turned on both Jordan and Lebanon, in spite of the hospitality of their host countries. That will happen with Syria if they don't stop playing the Islamofascist card.

#6 Yeah, but what does the Archbishoip of Canterbury think about that statement? ..."potentially murderous folly" also?

#7 Washington officials were astonished by the imagery and by the fact US intelligence had not picked up on the facility previously.

I say there Lionel, that's a load of pure bullshit!

#8 That would be a short war. Israel has really good weapons and troops and Syria has.... crap.

#9 The Paleos turned on both Jordan and Lebanon, ~~in spite~~ because of the hospitality of their host countries.

Fixed that for ya, McZ. Like all good Muslims, the Palestinians know damn well how the hand that's most difficult to bite is the one that is smacking the ever-living shit out of you.

#10 Syria will gladly fight a war to "regain" the Golan? Yes, and Florida Atlantic University will proudly walk onto LSU's home turf next week ...

#11 If the Iranian allied, terrorist promoting Assad clan desires full scale war with Israel - bring it on, and Damascus shall be reduced to a pile of radiating rubble.

#12 Off Topic but important. A news post included a link to a Canadian story about a neighborhood that is 100% Muslim. Does anyone doubt that Muslims are exclusivist and supremacist? If you do, then study this link:

#13 TURKEY > ISRAEL may not use Turkey's airspace to attack Syria - Israel must explain 9/6 attack; + WORLDTRIBUNE > TURKEY WARNS IRAQ IS DISINTEGRATING. Fears KURDS will delcare independence or local autonomy from IGA = Baghdad. WAPO > NOTH KOREAN SCIENTISTS HURT FROM ISRAEL ATTACK. Not clear iff any were actually killed albeit Britain's Sunday Times reported post-9/6 Norkies had died from the attack.
