"The Israelis (aside from one reference from Likud leader Bibi Netanyahu) have been keeping uncharacteristicly mum, which must mean that the US told them to STFU, which implies that what they found was of diplomatic importance if it could be kept hush-hush."

What a load of dittohead crapola! What it implies is that it was a completely screwed up waste of time, reflecting badly on the vaunted Israeli intelligence. If they'd FOUND anything worth finding, we'd be seeing it presented to us live on TV by the Israelis and the Bushies.

I think US/Israel might be blackmailing the syrians about something. Cant tell if its nukes or NK related either. But there is something that happened that syria didnt want out. I am noting a turkish connection as well with those fuel tanks being dumped. Syria with nukes, wmd, advanced missiles is a threat to turkey as well. Never quite got along. Hell it might be something Bashir didnt know about.

>>" There were US reports out, leaks. The Israelis (aside from one reference from Likud leader Bibi Netanyahu) have been keeping uncharacteristicly mum, which must mean that the US told them to STFU, which implies that what they found was of diplomatic importance if it could be kept hush-hush. "<<

They found Saddam's WMD and Bush has only told McCain, Romney, Thompson and Giuliani and they have been sworn to secrecy until they are certain that Saddam is not coming back to use those WMD.

But not too worry, Bush found the WMD trigger mechanisms in the Oval Office Restroom using the valuable assistance of Sen Craig and we are safe for the time being. That is, as long as all stay "STFU" ed.
