Syria Criticizes Proposed U.S. Sanctions Thu Oct 9, 7:42 AM ET By BASSEM MROUE, Associated Press Writer DAMASCUS, Syria - Syria through its official media Thursday criticized the United States' preliminary approval of a bill authorizing sanctions against it, saying the legislation was the work of "ultra-extremists." The House International Relations Committee approved the Syria Accountability and Lebanese Sovereignty Restoration Act on Wednesday, which would give the president the right to impose a variety of sanctions on Syria. Now let's see...they're thinking of bringing Turkish troops into Iraq, I've noticed that Slate's taken down the xx days to Kurd's betrayal page, they've praised Israel for striking near Damascus, NK is all but ignored, Afghanistan is heating up again, CIA agents can no longer feel safe.  I think they know that they'll never get public approval for another war, so they're gonna go in the back door. 7:46:51 PM    comment []
