It seems that the world is now divided into the bad terrorists who attack the U.S. and the good terrorists, sponsored by Syria and Iran that attack Israel. No? Paul

Syria has always been "against" terrorism?? ROFLMAO!!!! "They report that on Thursday, Sharon received an excited phone call from German Foreign Minister Yoshka Fischer, considered one of Israel's diplomatic allies in Europe. "I spoke with Bashar Assad," Fischer said. "He told me that Syria was always against terrorism. You have now idea how moved I was. To hear such things from the Syrian President." Sharon, the report went on, exploded with anger, to hear that not only was Syria believed to have been "always" against terror, but that the senior German diplomat was so moved to hear Assad claim as much. Not only that. Fischer went on to make demands of Israel. "You must go toward the Palestinians," he said. "It is possible that these concessions will be painful for the current generation, but they will promise a better future for coming generations." Little wonder Sharon was outraged!! I would have been as well if some pansy-@ssed Kraut diplomat tried to pee on my leg and tell me it's raining... Although I have high hopes that Bashar Assad might be able to one day moderate Syria's attitude, he has to break the grip on power possessed by his intelligence and military staff, all looking to invite him to a coup. Just amazing how quickly some diplomats deliberately chose to forget the past 50 years of history, eh??.. Hawk...
