#7 Syria Threatens to Close Lebanon Border

Not enough Iranian baksheesh making its way into Assad's pockets? Maybe he's decided to begin raking up loose cash for the eventual exit dash.

#11 Time for Israel to pound Damascus into dust, but only if Asshat is there in residence. Asshat and his generals, his friends, and his relatives all need to get a taste of JDAM Sandwich, like Zarqawi did.

BTW, I'm writing President Bush this afternoon, asking him to "loan" Israel a couple of squadrons of B-52s for a year or two - along with the aircrew and maintenance personnel to maintain them in prime condition. Maybe the next two squadrons we were planning to send to Davis-Monthan.
