The Calculus of Middle-Eastern Affairs

Syria's new best friend?
Iran is producing plutonium and "enriched" uranium, which has but one use, and one of my favorite dictators has declared that Iran won't stop until it has large-scale nuclear production facilities. Nasrallah has come out of hiding to speak to 7,000 Lebanese in the suburbs of Beirut, saying that he no longer has anything to do with the Lebanese government, after instructing his 7 stooges on the Lebanese cabinet to retire. To top it all off, Syria is reporting that Rick "Purpose Driven Life" Warren is suggesting that no peace in the middle east would be possible without, well, Syria's help, not that we should take Syria's word for it.

Is it just me, or is something getting fairly close on the horizon? (Update: I'm glad to know that Confederate Yankee is thinking along the same lines I am.)

Here is what a handful of random people think about this article. But first, the fine print:
The opinions expressed here, even where approved for display, do not necessarily reflect the opinions of this website, the management, or any other entity or organization, with the exception of the Vast Zionist Conspiracy. Those opinions we represent in style, yo. Please keep the language in these comments clean, as this is intended to be a family-friendly, work-friendly website. Comments not compliant with this policy will be edited for content where necessary. Abusive or otherwise illegal comments will be reported to the proper authorities, up to and including the aforementioned Vast Zionist Conspiracy. The Management cannot and will not be held responsible for commenters making a spectacle of themselves, even if The Management are the said commenters in question. In other words, don't take yourself so seriously, folks. We're all here to discuss the news, and more importantly, to have fun. Now go get yourself into some OCD treatment program—you obviously need it if you actually read all of this mess.
