So that Israeli attack on Syria was on a missle site being fitted with chemical weapons, not nuclear?
Eh... color me skeptical. All of the original "no comment" pieces doesn't have me thinking it was chemical, or Bush would be pointing at Iraq and Saddam's fictional WMDs immediately.
This can't be good. What the fuck is going on in Syria?
Admittedly, i'm out of the loop. Between the vacation in austin and the work i've had to make up, as well as these recurring headaches, i'm not so up on the news.
My speculation is that this proves once again, Syria did not have WMDs smuggled in from Iraq, or at least any nuclear ones. Why on earth would they import them from North Korea? The reason why the Bush administration is not crowing about the Israeli strike is because they don't know how to spin this. Syria had to import nuclear weapons and North Korea was not contained. Sure, Syria has possibly suffered a setback to what might be a nuclear program, but how is that an argument bolstering U.S. foreign policy?
Bush can cry all he wants about how he warned us that North Korea would be engaging in nuclear proliferation, but where is the United States? Bogged down in Iraq. Idiot.
The controversy about the frescoes painted by Bruno Schulz being spirited away to Israel from a private apartment has me a little confused. The removal itself is old news, but there are a couple of columns that i have noticed debating the issue, one pro, one con.
