Yeah, all the government should do is legalize pot and keep quiet.

Well that'd be the first thing you know.

Ladies, gentlemen, and NemesisZ:

War with Syria is NOT imminent. Sure, they may be doing a lot to irritate us right now, but as I said before, we know when to quit. Besides, karasz, you admitted that it's not exactly the most unbiased news source.

Besides, it's starting to look like Syria doesn't want to irritate us too much. Here is a report that they may be about to expel some members of Saddam's inner circle.

what are they doing to irritate us? and the only time the US knows when to quit is when 70k body bags come back...

what has syria done to irritate us to begin with?

i read ur link... and there is no talk of Saddam's inner circle... just Iraqi officials...

that could be like a fucking luitentant for the army that surrendered early... and he didnt want to be arrested and taken as a POW...

could also be an Iraqi general... but we are unsure of who it is..

Okay, I was mistaken about the "inner circle" part. I had read the article earlier in the day, and forgotten its exact words.

[TheEvilOne]

And regarding what they've done to irritate us... we have accused them of harboring officials from Saddam's regime, and also possibly harboring his weapons. The Syrians deny these accusations, of course. I can't say if they're true or not, but the article would suggest that the Syrians don't have any desire for war with the US. But if war with Syria were to come, it would probably be sometime down the road, and not right away.

if america invades syria, under similiar premises and afganistan and iraq, then the muslim block (which is stereotypicaly divided) may unite to defend itself. if the us starts a rash of invasions, it will be difficult to defend our "self defense" motive. "fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice shame on me, fool me three times and Im gonna kill your white imperialist ass etc".
