#1 Can he reject the sanctions or is this just poor wording by the paper? In any event hopefully this is the beginning of the end for Assad and his meddling in Iraq.

#2 He can reject them all he wants; it has as much effect as pissing into the ocean.

#3 But remember,
urinating in the ocean can raise the temperature, thereby affecting the Gulf Stream, melting the polar ice, freezing England, increasing LA smog, making my socks shrink, blah, blah, blah

#4 Yeah, yeah, Saddam "rejected" our sanctions too. Why in hell would we bother to send "evidence" to someone who knows that they're guilty? Worried that you're next after Saddam, Bashar? Take a number, and send your worthless Sryian pounds to the Committee to Elect John Kerry.

#5 Syrian President Bashar Assad said Thursday the United States had provided no proof to warrant imposing sanctions on his country and added he would not bow to U.S. demands to expel Palestinian militants.

There ya go. Assad would not expel Palestian terrorists, i.e., he his giving them safe harbor. GWB said, "You are with us or you are against us." Assad chose window #2 for a JDAM.
