Lebanon - Thanks Nancy Pelosi

The San Francisco Treat is now spouting that she was just helping poor hapless President Bush. Gee, all she did was say what W has been saying.

As Pelosi desperately tries to put a good face on her stupid and illegal actions in Syria where her lie about helping out Israel was debunked, the people of the Middle East are left to deal with her death bringing stupidity.

When a dilettante takes on Hizbullah

We can thank the US speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, for having
informed Syrian President Bashar Assad, from Beirut, that "the road to solving
Lebanon's problems passes through Damascus." Now, of course, all we need to do
is remind Pelosi that the spirit and letter of successive United Nations
Security Council resolutions, as well as Saudi and Egyptian efforts in recent
weeks, have been destined to ensure precisely the opposite: that Syria end its
meddling in Lebanese affairs.

Pelosi embarked on a fool's errand to Damascus
this week, and among the issues she said she would raise with Assad - when she
wasn't on the Lady Hester Stanhope tour in the capital of imprisoned dissidents
Aref Dalila, Michel Kilo, and Anwar Bunni - is "the role of Syria in supporting
Hamas and Hizbullah." What the speaker doesn't seem to have realized is that if
Syria is made an obligatory passage in American efforts to address the Lebanese
crisis, then Hizbullah will only gain. Once Assad is re-anointed gatekeeper in
Lebanon, he will have no incentive to concede anything, least of all to
dilettantes like Pelosi, on an organization that would be Syria's enforcer in
Beirut if it could re-impose its hegemony over its smaller neighbor.

Unfortunately, foreign bigwigs come to town,
their domestic calculations in hand; then they leave, and we're left picking up
the pieces.

We've elected a very naive and ignorant Speaker. She and her minion will bring death to freedom simply to get "good" press for their next election.
