US: All Options on the Table Against Syria
By Jason Ditz, April 21, 2010
Though they have admitted once again that they still haven’t actually got any proof that any such thing happened, the US State Department insisted today that “all options are on the table” with respect to retaliating against Syria over its alleged delivery of Scud missiles to Hezbollah.
Assistant Secretary Jeffrey Feltman says the State Department has “really, really serious concern” about the report, and said if Syria actually turns out to have done such a thing it would be a “provocative action.”
Israel made the accusation last week, but it has since been denied by both Syria and Lebanon’s governments. Israel has not provided any public evidence to support its claim, but Hezbollah has been rumored in the media to have been given some old, unusable Scuds at some point in the past.
Scud missiles would give the Lebanese militant group the ability to hit targets anywhere in Israel at a time when Israeli officials are openly talking of launching another invasion of southern Lebanon.

Good Idea, Scott. Except, I wouldn’t be comfortable with the Jewish state in such close proximity to my home. How about a little further to the west and south? There’s a nice island the size of Texas forming out in the Pacific, right now, between Costa Rica and Hawaii; roomer has it that it’s made of plastic. It’s a perfect match! A fake land with no people for a fake people with no land.
