Syrian Official Says Relations With U.S. Plunge to New Low: "The American refusal to criticize a sudden Israeli air raid on Syria has helped bring relations with the United States to a new low, the Syrian Foreign Ministry said Saturday, suggesting that the Bush administration was pursuing a destructive course at a time of dangerously high tension in the region. "

This ties in with another story about Sharon acting tough because he has US support. If this is a way to bring "stability" to the region, could someone please explain how? It's maddness, on top of the Iraq invasion maddness, to me.
