Too little, too late
As far as I'm concerned, America has been at war with Syria for about 2 years now, due to their not-so-secret support of the Iraqi insurgents. But Captain Ed finds that Syria may be getting the message:
Iraqi officials said Sunday that Syrian authorities had captured Saddam Hussein's half-brother and 29 other officials of the deposed dictator's Baath Party in Syria and handed them over to Iraq in an apparent goodwill gesture....Somehow I doubt that Syria just now stumbled across these 30 Saddamites. So why now? Maybe they've decided America isn't as "overextended" as they once thought, and they're looking for a way out.
