Come into my parlor, said the spider. It would probably be a little more fair to at least put up a sign saying, "This is a DARK RIDE" or some such. Or maybe steal from O'Rielly and warn 'em thay they're entering a real 'no-spin zone.'
Syria is currently scared poopless as they see what even most Americans don't and that is that once human rights take on in Iraq and they elect a representative govt. (I know...they aren't ready, blah blah blah,give 'em some credit) Syria will, just like Saudi and the Ayatollahs, be left trying to hold on to their nations too. Freedom is contagious. It is scaring the hell out of all the tyrants of that area.
