Yes you are correct, however, nothing happens in ME without a superpower OK. The Syrian deal is: Lebanon for Golan or until Syria served its purpose. Yes, the US good intentions are implemented in wrong way. I do not think that the Lebanese share the same feelings. They feel that were and are pawns in the superpowers' game. mfa.gov.il "The real problem is for nearly seven years the country was taken over by a Syrian occupation army and by the terrorists of the P.L.O., whom the Soviet Union.. Syria and Libya provided with ammunition and weapons. I want to tell you that we ourselves were taken by surprise. We disclose now the amounts of Russian weapons and ammunition, which will take us six weeks to take out from Lebanon if we use ten big Mack trucks working day and night. Lebanon became a Soviet base for the whole of the Middle east. We undertook the operation, "Peace for Galilee,' for our own self-defense. But indirectly we did a great service to the Free World. It was a great danger to other countries in the Middle East." The US gave Iraq huge line of credit to be able to buy so called agricultural equipments. Do you recall Oliver North and the Contra Affair. Things can be authorized with creative bookkeeping in mind.
