Back to Arnie...
Yes the Israelis did attack Syria with warplanes and high explosives just a few weeks ago.
Although there have been some kind of negotiations between Syria and Israel since then I think they will not amount to much as Syria wants the Golan Heights back and Israel wont give it up.So a further stand off there.
What is alarming in all this is the possibility of an American attack on Iran which will be Bush's parting gift to the world before he leaves office in November while Hillery Clinton said recently she had no problem with a US attack on Iran.
Meanwhile,Israel,the one nuclear stae in the Middle East continues to attack its neighbours in Lebanon ,Gaza and Syria and is one of the most powerful military force in the world thanks to American military,economic,technological and financial aid.
