All Eyes On Syria
Posted by mutehead under MiddleEast, Syria | Tags: Aleppo, Arab League, Damascus, Israel, Lebanon, Syria |So, this weekend, all eyes are on Syria. Down in Damascus, they’re having another Arab League Summit. This is noteworthy partly because it comes on the heels of yet another UN report being released which says that Rafiq Hariri was assassinated. Welcome to 2005, 2006, and 2007. Until they name names, I won’t bother TiVoing any more of their press releases. Anyway, the Arab League summit is also noteworthy because of the rumors that Israel was going to attend for the first time ever. Of course, Olmert and the Israeli delegation passed on the opportunity because they weren’t actually invited and they didn’t want to come anyway.
But don’t swell Damascus’s ego. We got our own big news up here in Aleppo too. Why just this morning in Mohafezah, a stray cat jumped out of a garbage bin and almost got hit by a taxi.

to those of who you don’t know the first thing about the Arab League Summit, the most interesting part about it this year, was Gaddafi bashing everyone
Gadhafi Blasts Arab Leaders at Summit

Shizzle in Ashrafiya? Hmm. I will have to ask my posse what went down. As for Gaddafi, trust him to start throwing his weight around now that people are starting to talk to him again.

Israel and Syria will never get along, for me as a casual Arabic Muslim man.
I will never and ever acknowledge the state of Zionism, I don’t care about Governments deals, as a citizen I believe the case it’s like this.
Either us or them, no other solution.
