The US announces it has
"an increasing list of problems" with Syria, hours
after Damascus formed a "front" with Iran. This comes
in the wake of the assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister
Rafik Hariri, who had called for the withdrawal of Syrian troops
from his country. The hand of Syria is suspected in this act
of terror. Meanwhile the Iranians claim to be only a few short
steps away from developing the bomb, and show no sign of turning
back. Iran and Syria seem to want to form a convenient new axis
of evil for Bush. Does his keen nose scent blood in the air?
Is it another opportunity for the US Army to go walkies in the
desert?
