I expect that all four of the final entries on the State Department list of state sponsors of terrorism will soon be deleted: Cuba, Iran, Syria, and Sudan.

Thank you.

Isn't Syria the one that WAS building a nuke reactor in the desert?

The one the Israelis had to attack?

Is this another of Obama’s attempts to stimulate the economy? They are going out of their way to bring another attack on us and Isreal.

This administration is making me more disgusted every day...

OK, every single day Hussein is doing the EXACT opposite of what he SHOULD be doing. There are 3 possibilities: 1) Hussein is actually stupid enough to believe this will change Syria’s bloodlust for Jews; 2) Hussein thinks this will make the head-choppers like us, or 3) He is working with the enemy to take the country down.

Either way, this is bad for Americans, Israelis, and Iraqis. Nothing good can come of this at all.

More like "easing sanctions on Syria to aid" in building up Syria's military for an immanent attack on Israel.
