You have made an excellent point, that sometimes the French can be quite brutal when annoyed.

It would be nice if the French were to do something horrible to the Syrian terrorists, but I think France will avoid doing anything that could help Israel.

I regret that the reconstitution of the Iraqi state from a genocidal, racist, totalitarian, Baathist dictatorship run by a madman to a member of the community of nations has met with some distractions and detours from hangers-on and ignorant, neaderthalic, insurgent, Islamist-towel-headed-scum, because the mafia family that runs Syria is really begging to get 'whacked'.

Agreed.

Then the Mad Mullahs will feel even more isolated.

Stupid move by Boy Assad, but who said he was smart.

Now it's practically certain that Syria has "inherited" all or most of what was left of Saddam's biological and chemical weapons (and which are appearing in Sudan under the control of Syrian Army special "advisors" and being used "experimentally" to wipe out black Christian villagers in that country's genocidal war).

Do you have a link to information regarding the second part of your post above??

Why is it that people (Hitler, Saddam) who should be digging deeper holes are always digging deeper holes in the wrong way?

The Syrian government's days are numbered.

We'll soon find out if they have Sadams' WMDs.

I mentioned it in my post based on a straight recollection of some FR articles in mid to late 2004. I can't find them using Key Words combinations Sudan, Syria, and WMD and so have trid to dig a bit deeper.

I've come up with a blog site called The Jawa Report which references AFP (Agence France Press). Another was posted at a Lebanese site: http://www.free-lebanon.com/LFPNews/2004/April/April8/april8.html.

There are far more numerous articles, of course, that refer to the truck convoys seen leaving Iraq for Syria and the Bekaa Valley prior to the 2003 invasion, as well as "unnamed" intelligence sources saying those trucks carried components of Saddam's WMD programs. But if I went to far in bringing up what may have been unsubstantiated rumors, then I apologize to all.
