While there has been much debate in the U.S. about whether U.S. forces should enter Syrian territory to pursue terrorists using it as a base of operations for the Iraqi insurgency, in fact, American troops and their Iraqi allies did just that last month

Anybody know more about this? I actually suspected this was happening at the time because opposition to the war was ramping WAY up for no apparent reason. I'll bet this secret campaign was just too effective!

What a crock! How about a link to an article that doesn't require $100 to read?

Oh my God, it's Cambodia I tell ya! Cambodia all over again...

Why didn't we go all the way to Damascus?

My military contacts tell me this is Bullsh*t...

On Christmas eve, John Kerry took a boat trip to Syria.

Why didn't we go all the way to Damascus?

Or, better yet, the rubble of Damascus...

I dont believe it either...the Syrian Govt would be crying foul to the UN...unless, they realized that by doing so they are admittin there are terrorists in their country.

Oh my God, it's Cambodia I tell ya! Cambodia all over again...

My dollar says our special forces have been there many times. If I am wrong, I'll kiss your ass in the middle of mainstreet and give you two hours to draw a crowd.

Normal Debka caveats apply.

When the last potentially electable Democrat has blown their wad on GWB, the WMD's will come to light in Syria. Keep in mind the heads up from Sen. Rockefeller post 9/11/2001, and the actual US invasion of Iraq in March 20, 2003. Plenty of time to move everything to Bathist Syria. Thanks, Democrats!

I agree with you and support it. The point is, IMO this is being lofted to create an incident if possible. If only they can inspire the international community to condemn the U.S. on some point.

Not BS, but what the heck is it doing out here?

This first appeared some weeks ago here and nothing was ever said about it in the MSM. You can bet the ranch that the MSM would be screaming to the high heavens if this was true. You can also bet that losing 11 Marines would have equated to losing the whole Syrian Army.

Private citizens form Saudi Arabia entered Iraq and Afghanistan to kill Americans. Iran sent in military explosives and advisors and killed Americans. Syria sent in terrorists and materials to kill Americans. One of Iran's leaders helped in the taking of the American Embassy in Iran. Syria has been active in terrorism for decades. The US Military has been very restrained in their actions.

WND based on Debka? Are there enough grains of salt?

Why do you think I posted it here??? ;)

This is the same article that was posted last week from DEBKA. The sources are suspect.

It'd be ALL over the MSM so fast our heads would be spinning...like in the 'The Exorcist.'

The MSM is lookin' for ANYTHING and EVERYTHING to slam the USA over. So if we were in Syria...how perfect would that be for them. Reminds me of all the draft crapola the dems put out before W's reelection. It didn't happen and the dems or DU'ers were wishing it would/had so they could say see what you got when you got W, we told you so.
