164. Even the French agree that Syria is causing a lot of trouble.
Syria appears to be supporting the obstructionist in Iraq, Afghanistan, Israel, and Lebanon. They are a barrier to a more peaceful, secular and democratic Middle East. Lebanon was once a very cosmopolitan place and they are tying very hard to recover that.

You could argue that this should not be primarily an American problem. We should certainly be applying pressure. The EU is with us on this issue.

I do not like most things about the Bush Iraq policy but I am in favor of a more peaceful and democratic Middle East. I am NOT in favor of invading Syria.
