"Bush's Last Bullet: Why the US Attacked Syria"

Ramzy Baroud, Palestine Chronicle | November 11, 2008

Russia’s attacks on Georgia have been decried by the US as a violation against international law but recent US attacks on Syria are no less destabilizing to the area. ++ Syria has not only initiated peace talks with Israel and reestablished diplomatic ties with Lebanon, it is also strengthening relations with the EU. ++ US attempts to isolate Syria are failing. ++ The bombings can be viewed as Bush’s warning to Syria. ++ US policy towards Syria has to change, as it becomes the source of “further animosity towards the U.S. throughout the world.”
