File under: Govt of Syria

#1 Congress was angry about being kept in the dark until the last minute. Understandable. But given their inability to keep secrets it is also understandable why the administration would keep them in the dark. Not to mention that these secrets were not 'ours' - at most they were joint secrets with Israel, and if we want to keep getting information from Israel (and influencing their actions) we need to honor THEIR secrecy.
There's a lot of story still hidden behind this public release - I just hope I live long enough to hear 'the rest of the story' (might have to live a longer life than Paul Harvey to do it though.)

#2 They've already rebuilt the place? So what is the IAEA doing about it? (Referring to the other article.)

#3 Of course there will be no further punitive measures against NKor or Syria, that would be , well ,
picking on them.

#4 ISRAEL's WORRY > once IRAN is allowed to dev "NUCLEAR ENERGY" [Israel read - WEAPONS], SYRIA etc. will also demand the same thing. ISRAEL RIGHTLY FEARS THAT, UNLESS REGIONAL PEACE IS ACHIEVED NOW, IT FACES LT PROSPECT OF BEING SUROUNDED BY HOSTILE MUSLIM-ISLAMIST NUCLEAR STATES, + STILL BE HAMMERED BY VARI NUCLEARIZED WEAPONIZED LOCAL MILITANTS. The US-West may no longer be willing to mil assist = save Israel iff the choice is POTEN WAGING MUTUALLY DESTRUCTIVE STRATEGIC NUCLEAR WARFARE AGZ ISRAEL'S ENEMIES.
Many Israeli Jews and Net Posters believe "the Clock is ticking" agz their country iff contemporary peace efforts fail + RADICLA IRAN-MILITANTS GET NUCLEAR TECHS.

#5 Compare wid TOPIX > MUSLIM MARTIN LUTHERS: THE THEOLOGIANS WORK FOR "EURO-ISLAM" + TURKISH SCHOLARS PREPARE TO RE-INTERPRETE ISLAM + ISLAM UNDER REVIEW BY MUSLIM/ISLAMIC MAJOR SCHOLARS.

Hopefully, efforts such as these to reform and modernize Islam will succeed, AS RADICAL ISLAM GENER DOES NOT RECOGNIZE PARITY = CO-EXISTENCE AND COMPATIBILITY WID NON-ISLAM, e.g. NEITHER WITH THE US-WEST NOR RUSSIA-CHINA, etc.
