Stop your nuclear program or we will pummel you with crepes and bagels. Just look what we are doing in Lebanon.
We confuse the enemy by running away

funny the 200 or so troops they are sending to lebanon is more than the USA is sending (which is zero)

Canada has put out ALMOST $2 million (canadian at that...) while America is giving over $250 million USD.

Anyone see Fox Sunday where they showed the video clip of the French troops arriving in Lebanon in two inflatable boats? I thought Chris Wallace was going to start laughing.

True, but since none of us are sending any what's the difference? The United States is doing MUCH more than Canada can, or is willing to do. Just wanted to point that out

Uh oh, here come the Syrians!







Syria Rejects International Force Along Lebanon Border
Wednesday, August 23, 2006


BEIRUT, Lebanon â?? Syria's President Bashar Assad was quoted in a TV interview as saying Wednesday that he would consider the deployment of international troops along the Lebanon-Syria border a "hostile" move toward his country.

"First, this means creating a hostile condition between Syria and Lebanon," Assad told Dubai Television, according to excerpts released by the TV station ahead of the interview's airing late Wednesday. "Second, it is a hostile move toward Syria and naturally it will create problems."

Assad did not elaborate on that point in the excerpts. But in Finland, that country's foreign minister, after meeting with his Syrian counterpart, said Damascus threatened to close its border with Lebanon if U.N. peacekeepers were deployed there.
