I know very well that Syria could very possibly be harboring terrorists. I know they're out of line, but It's my country, damn it, and I don't want his reform, and I don't want him bombing the hell out of Syria, and yet, what is suppose to be done? What they most likely did was terrible, horrible... I have more Syrian relatives, but I have Lebonese ( Read more... )

It is going to be interesting (in the Chinese sense) to see if Mr. Bush is going to be able to effectively develop his desired image as a collaborative statesman, after the last four years of going it alone. His least concern appears to be the perspective/plight of others in the world, aside from his monied political supporters. The caring and concern he has is a remarkably shallow show.

It's very easy for them to lie to non-Arabs. They hate America and Americans. The racism and lying concerns me. We, with our American moral, believe we can march in, negotiate and things will be okay. It isn't that simple, especially Syria... I believe Syria does deserve some kind of punishment for what happened.. I don't want to, but I believe they were involved with the death of the Lebanese prime minister. Syria is set apart. They don't really fallow any one and they look so wholesome. If there is one country in the middle east that is easy to trust it is Syria. However, it's just a façade, a charade. I lay man's terms, I believe President Bush has far more on his plate then any of ( ... )
