| #2 The Bearded One has weighed in as well: Havana, Oct 27 (Prensa Latina) Cuban President Fidel Castro sent a message of solidarity to Syrian counterpart Bashar al Assad, amid US threats against that Arab nation. Jaime Crombet, vice president of the Cuban National Assembly, delivered the message to al Assad at the Damascus palace, according to Granma newspaper. Al Assad reciprocated the Cuban president´s message in a meeting he called fraternal, as it contributed to reenergizing historic bilateral relations and mutual solidarity. The Syrian leader and Jaime Crombet reviewed issues of common concern and the current international situation. Crombet thanked Syrian for its support of Cuba´s cause, chiefly its condemnation of the over four-decade US economic, financial and commercial blockade. Officials included in the Cuban delegation held talks with Syrian National Assembly president and vice president, Mahmoud al Abrach and Mohamed Qadoura, respectively. They also met with Foreign Affairs Commission Chairman Noumer Ghanne and Fouadh Battah, member of the parliamentary group of friendship. Both legislative bodies agreed to strengthen friendship and cooperation relations and exchange visits between officials from the two countries. Is it too late to call back that hurricane assistance team? |

| #1 Think there's any connection between statements of the government and the people's recent rejection of gun control? In that the people don't trust those in power? So just whom is the man speaking for? |
