Syria's feelin' froggy!!!


MADRID - Syria will enter the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah if Israel Defense Forces ground troops enter Lebanon and approach Syria, Syrian Information Minister Mohsen Bilal said in an interview published on Sunday.

"If Israel invades Lebanon over ground and comes near to us, Syria will not sit tight. She will join the conflict," he told "ABC" newspaper.

U.S. ally Qatar is involved in mediation to end the war between Israel and Hezbollah, senior political sources said Sunday.

Here is another related story confirming the one above.

Here are a couple of quotes of interest:

Bilal said Damascus would cooperate only within the framework of a broader Middle East peace initiative that would include a return of the Golan Heights, captured by Israel in 1967.
YEAH, RIGHT!!!!

"If Israel invades Lebanon and enters it by land, then it will be only about 12 miles from Damascus, then we will not stand with our hands tied," Bilal said.
This gets more and more interesting.
