maybe he can get Israel to give up some more land to appease them.
It’s about time George Bush said something about the repeated assassinations in Lebanon. I thought he sold us out to the Syrians in return for something regarding Iraq. Lebanon owes George Bush a great deal for getting the Syrians out, but there’s a while to go before Lebanon can declare itself sovereign.
He won’t lift a finger to protect our borders from being overrun by Mexicans. Don’t expect much in regard to the Lebanon problem with Syria.
That would be a cooler headline.
It hurts me to say this, but Lebanon is simply a failed state & it's pointless to pretend that it will ever be sovereign. It won't survive the next big Middle Eastern war & will most likely be split between Syria & Israel.

A President in legacy-mode is a dangerous thing...especially if you’re Israel.
There, took care of that!
yes it would!
You know it!
That assumes either will survive the next big Middle Eastern war
Israel likely will. It acts pathetic during peace time & during long ‘wars’, but fights well when the games are over & it’s a matter of survival. It also has an advantage over most of the Middle Eastern states, which is that they’re not plagued by civil war & the ragings of barely-suppressed minorities.
Syria will keep it together as long as it brings prestige to Syria with its Greater Syria agenda. I think the next states on the chopping block are Palestine - if it gets created - & then Jordan. The Hashimites won’t be able to rule over 70% Palestinians for much longer. Iraq has higher probability of failure, but heavy American involvement will keep it artificially propped up for a while.
Yeah, it’s about time he actually enforced his own doctrine isetead of letting the Dems make him run for cover.
BRILLIANT!
Let’s do it!!
Lebanon is in transition from a democracy to an Islamic Republic.
Lebanon is now a majority Muslim country, with the Infidel democracy still in place.
The thing that holds up the Islamic takeover is the Sunni Muslims are a minority like the Infidels, and are reluctant to see the Shiites win big in Lebanon. - Tom
Talk is cheap. Iran has gotten away with aiding and abetting the murder of hundreds of US servicemen in Iraq. I seriously doubt the Iranians are going to quiver much in response to this verbal spanking.
LOL!!!
I love the sea of Iran idea/Cheney rocks
