Shells From Syria Fired at Troops in Iraq

"Who exactly is firing these mortars, we do not know. But what we do know is that the point of origin of these rounds is on the Syrian side of the border," said Woodbridge, 39, of Brooklyn.
There has been no evidence linking the Syrian military to the attacks, he said. However, the Syrian military has the capability to determine who is launching the mortars and act against them, Woodbridge said.

Bush already has said that he feels he is free to attack any nation that harbors terrorists or militants that act against Americans.
