I felt there were many very good reasons for invading Iraw. Now that it's over, I hear rumblings from the government and int he press about warnings given to Syria. Of course, the typically liberal media has jumped on this as another condemnation of the Bush regime. Like anything heard or read, the context has to be taken in to account. Rumsfeld's warnings to Syria seemed to me to be more of the "Don't fuck with us anymore, or we'll come after you type." That's fine. If they fuck with us, then I'll be all for going after them. The press write-ups I saw, however, seemed to indicate that this warning was more than slightly menacing. I don't think that Rumsfeld meant anything more than "We'll be keeping our eye on you." I would be 100% against a war with Syria until and unless they give us as compelling a list of reasons as Saddam did.
