Bush renews his warning to Syria, Iran on 'meddling' in Iraq affairs
 US President George W. Bush yesterday cautioned Iran and Syria not to interfere in Iraq's internal politics, saying the US had a variety of ways to retaliate if the two countries failed to heed his warning. The message is the second within a week from the US president to Teheran and Damascus to refrain from "meddling" in Iraq. "When I said the other day that I expect these countries to honor the political process in Iraq without meddling, I meant it. And hopefully those governments heard what I said," Bush said at a news conference. "We have sent messages to the Syrians in the past and we will continue to do so. We have tools at our disposal — a variety of tools, ranging from diplomatic tools to economic pressure," he said.
