Sometimes it IS about Iraq
Posted by McQ

So Syria, Iraq made an impression?

THE domino effect of the removal of Saddam Hussein from the Middle East equation continues. There are now tentative signs that Syria wants to follow Iran and Libya, renounce its weapons of mass destruction and links with terrorism, and rejoin the international community.

And just as Libya used Britain as its intermediary – a development that climaxed with last week's Tripoli visit by British Prime Minister Tony Blair – Syria has been putting out feelers to Australia. During secret talks between the two nations reported exclusively in The Weekend Australian, Syria has asked us to use our good offices with Washington to sponsor its rehabilitation and help it shake off a reputation as a terror haven.

Iran and Lybia say "hi".
