Well, since a Koran wasn't desecrated by a member of the U.S. Armed Forces during this incident, then this won't make the front page news or the Sunday talk show circuit. /sacr

I think there will be a day of reckoning for Syria. To many warnings are being sent for there not to be.

He took those down when he wasn't a lame duck. We're just trying to appoint judges and get out of Iraq by 09. Where you been?

You are right. Never forget the 4th ID.
I will never forgive France, after all we did for them, for what they did about the Libya air-space denial with Reagan.
Likewise, I will never forgive Turkey. After the billions and billions we gave them, and after protecting them all these years, they screwed us and cost us lives.
Why we continue to consort with despicable nations is beyond comprehension. Our national leaders are as crazy as France and Turkey is deplorable.

One missile was fired towards the Mediterranean, the Israeli officials said, and broke up over the Turkish province of Hatay, shedding debris over two villages.Syria shot a scud over Turkey to snub the US?
Whatever.

Our president doesn't have the support to go into Syria. Not even in his own party. Everyone knows that.... including Syria.

Is there something that Syria knows (about sizing up Bush)that the rest of us have yet to learn?
Or could it be the "straw that breaks the camels back"?
To: paul51
Actually, the list should be who is not despicable. Of all the nations in the world, it is hard to come up with more than ten that are good and honorable friends.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Turks were teaming with Syria to taunt US. In fact, Syria enhanced its relationship with Turkey months ago. When our projectiles landed on Turkey long ago, there was a protest by the Turks, but I hear no news about protests against Syria for this case. I think the Turks have a great double standard to be soft on their anti-American Muslim brothers.

Well anyways, if they ever attempt it to land on Iraq, that will allow US and Iraq to fight together to raid Syria. Let them do it again.

Does anyone see a strange coincidence?
Weapons Equipment Missing In Iraq
Associated Press June 3, 2005 LINK
"UNITED NATIONS - U.N. satellite imagery experts have determined that material that could be used to make biological or chemical weapons and
banned long-range missiles has been removed from 109 sites in Iraq, U.N. weapons inspectors said in a report obtained Thursday."
The UN says that there is some missing missile stuff in Iraq, (implies it is the US's fault), then a day later, the Syrians pop one off?

Syria has staged a defiant display of strategic firepower by test-firing Scud missiles Association of Muslim Scholars
How about a couple of daisy cutters rectally inserted as a defiant display of strategic firepower from a B52 at drop zone altitude?

Syria gets it... our lame duck administration can't do anything about what Syria does. It's all politics Oh please - GWB is far from a lame duck CIC - It is all about reality and you simply don't understand it (from your comments above).
