Here's the link to the topo, but in this case, the Leb CIA Relief map is more useful, and I do not have that link.

I'll see if I can gewt a reduced jpeg up that's worth uploading, I'm not sure the text will be readable in any size samll enough to upload.

Some reporterette was on CNN about an hour ago and said that Israeli sources told her that Syria entering the war is the thing Israel is most afraid of.

My husband and I burst out laughing. I'd be stunned if Israel doesn't make sure that Syria DOES enter the conflict.

Re Tony Blair. He's doing a little pandering while in California, but his speech during joint press conference with President Bush last Friday was brilliant.

http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2006/07/20060728-1.html

Sample: "But then, as the President was saying a moment or two ago, we've then got to realize what has happened in the past few weeks is not an isolated incident. It is part of a bigger picture. Now, I'm going to say some more things about this in the days to come, but we really will never understand how we deal with this situation unless we understand that there is a big picture out in the Middle East, which is about reactionary and terrorist groups trying to stop what the vast majority of people in the Middle East want, which is progress towards democracy, liberty, human rights, the same as the rest of us.

Now, that's the battle that's going on. And, yes, it is always very difficult when something like this happens, as it has happened over the past few weeks. So we've got to resolve the immediate situation, but we shouldn't be in any doubt at all, that will be a temporary respite unless we put in place the longer-term framework."

But read all his comments.

I have just hung up the phone with a good friend of mine who has relayed the following info to me. The Syrian Army has passed the word down from Assad that today sometime between now current time in Israel is 11:40pm (23:30) and the morning Israel will attack Syria.

I would assume that any attacks will be on munitions and WMD supply depots stretched between Lebanon and Iraq, but well north of the 12-mile Damascus "tripwire".
