Regime change Syria

Enough is enough

Syria must be stopped. Forget Hezbollah. Aim for the head of the snake, or forget Lebanon.

Lebanon used to be 50-60 percent Christian and is now about 30 percent, or less, and shrinking fast, what with Islamofascism and assassinations. We should stand shoulder to shoulder with the Israelis and remind Syria that Damascus is a very short drive from Jerusalem, as they found out during the 1973 war when Israel probably could have taken it.

Personally, I don’t think there’s anything to be gained by the kind of jawboning that Bush and Blair are attempting, now in light of the latest assassination. Here’s the shameful death list:

Assassinations

February 2005 Rafik Hariri, former Prime Minister, truck filled with explosives

June 2005 Samir Kassir, a journalist, car bomb

June 2005 George Hawi, anti-Syria politician, car bomb

December 2005 Gebran Tueni, anti-Syria journalist and MP, car bomb

November 2006 Pierre Gemayel, Industry Minister, shot in car

What more do we need to know? Bashir Assad must go.

Table talk

Normally, this might not pass the Roscoe language test. Just bear in mind that the following statement was uttered by a family physician of our acquaintance who, no doubt, was making a simple clinical observation as a medical professional.

The conversation among the six of us had turned to politics and the agony of the election. Yours truly made the observation that these reversals are standard operating procedure during mid-term elections. If people were reacting at the polls with Republican fatigue, just wait until they get a load of the warts and pimples of the incoming Dhimmicrats.

To which Dr. Doug replied, “Warts and pimples? More like anal fissures, if you ask me.”

Heh.
