1. and some incident will happen

or we will say it happened that will soon put us in Syria I'm sure. The end is nigh folks.

[BeHereNow]

5. The end is nigh indeed-

The screw keeps turning and still
no one hears the sound of metal on metal.

22. The Rapture crazies are all for this

The destruction of Damascus is "the next big event" on their prophetic calendar. It gets destroyed before Jesus comes again.

They think that Bush is how God is going to destroy Damascus. They're all for it.

2. Gee...how convEEEEnient!

Makes it ever so easy to continue
the illegal invasion and occupation
of all countries associated in the axis of EVIL!

4. All you have to do is "accidentally" lob a few missiles over the border.

They'll get the message. Besides, they can blame it on "insurgents."

[Renew Deal]

3. Lets kick their ass while we're there.

:evilgrin:

[WLKjr]

6. SO according to Brian Williams

that is where the main HQ for the insurgents from syria are. QAIM!!!!!!! THATS WHERE TEHY HAVE BEEN ALL ALONG


</sarcasm>


I hate this fucking war.

[ET Awful]

7. Maybe they'll say that the "grenade" in Georgia was thrown by a

Syrian.

[cornermouse]

8. Funny, from what NPR said, I thought they were already over the

border.

Then again, it would be a nice cover for movement toward Iran, wouldn't it.

[teryang]

9. It's easier to fight over there

...then in the center of the country. Give the "embedded" journalists a taste of conventional conflict where the American forces can dominate the empty landscape.

10. If Iraq = Vietnam...Then Syria = Cambodia

Natural progression of the war. The neocons are convinced there are WMDs in the Bekaa Valley.

[eissa]

13. Bekaa Valley?!

That's in Lebanon -- are they on our to-do list as well?! Sheesh, that list keeps growing! No wonder we were so eager to see Syria leave -- less competition when we go in!

[Roland99]

14. They won't stop until they achieve total domination.

[Just Me]

11. Talk about pushin' the dang envelope!!!

That's being awfully provocative, isn't it? :shrug:

"bring it on",...is that what they're trying to do: incite somethin'?

They are also launching attacks in western Iraq and we all know who's over there.

Iran or Syria. Syria or Iran. Ya' think they'll just toss a coin? After all, they were willing to set up what basically amounted to a gambling site on some such crazy stuff. I swear they are outta' their minds.

[cornermouse]

12. Then again, maybe its Iran AND Syria?

They're crazy enough to do it.

[Just Me]

19. I am getting a really, really awful feeling all of a sudden.

What is going on?

(((EW))) Must. Shake. This. OFF!!!!

[The_Casual_Observer]

15. Pretty damn convenient. However, there isn't any oil in Syria,

so I doubt they will waste their time or their bullets.

[CatholicEdHead]

17. Yes there is

Check out the maps halfway down here:

They are mostly on the eastern side of the country.

[Frederik]

16. Yes! Go go go!!

World War III !!

:nuke:

[Walt Starr]

18. IRaqnam is resulting in a second Cambodia

Look out, here we go.

[SalmonChantedEvening]

20. First you outsource the torture...

Then you takeover the company doing the work.

Win win.



Sonzabitches, every last one of them.

:grr:

[Nevernose]

21. No wonder they pulled out of Lebanon

They're beefing up their Eastern border

23. poke

the lion. Then you can shoot it.
