A Syrian official last night said: “These allegations have been raised many times in the past by Israeli officials, which proves that they are false.”

On top of all this Bush now wants to know where the WMDs are. As do we all.

I imagine this is all part of the plan to keep pressure on President Assad, who in the photo accompanying the Jerusalem Post piece does look a little less than resolute. But with the US election coming up, Bush is surely not about to launch these strikes (is he??).

    “But with the US election coming up, Bush is surely not about to launch these strikes (is he??).”
    I don’t know if he will, but it would certainly be effective to strike when no one expects it.
