Syria 'to come clean' on al-Qaeda cells

Sky News said they had spoken to Syrian cabinet minister Amr Salem.

"Syria has real hard knowledge," the channel quoted him as saying.

A Sky News correspondent said the Syrians were offering to tell the US where many fundamentalists were.

He said the channel was told specifically there were cells of Osama bin Laden's al-Qaeda terrorist network in Lebanon, and Syria knew of their whereabouts.

Since Syrian troops pulled out of Lebanon last year, the cells have grown, he said.

"We know where they are and we can tell you," the correspondent said Sky News was told Syria was prepared to say.

We got rid of the Baathists in Iraq, now it's time to do the same in Syria.

What Syria has probably done is discovered that we've infiltrated their intelligence network.

This is a quick way to tell Al Qaeda agents to move.

No need Syria, we will get the information when we invade your country, overthrow your rulers, and convert you all to Judaism.

Was Amr Salem being "rung-up" at the time of this admission?

Guess it's getting mighty hot in their kitchen. We'll just have to wait and see if there's any truth to it. Hope so...

If this is true, Syria might go the way of Libya.

You have to put these statements through the muslim language translator. Then it reads:

the Syrians were offering to tell the US lie about where many fundamentalists were.

They'll probably want some 'protection' money to protect them from the Wrath of Iran.

"convert you all to Judaism"

Too hard. Christianity is more of an outreach religion. Leave judaism to the jews.

Christianity. I would back a resettlement program, providing for the return of Lebanonese Christians to the country, and demanding for them the number of seats in the Cabinet equal to that of the Hezzies.

If true, then it appears as if Bashar al-Assad has taken to heart the lessons from his father, Hafez al-Assad. His father supported terrorists, but when things got hot, he always knew how to placate the United States. The son is doing the same but it is time to throw him overboard. Let him go, let him drown. We'll worry about leadership later.

"Syria offers to be an intermediary between Iran and the United States" and "Syria can play an important role in Iraq".

Okie-doakie then, Mr. Salem, let's talk locations of Saddam's WMD in Syria and/or Lebanon, shall we?
