Iraq tells Syria to butt out
2005-09-13
Iraq has officially requested Syria to stop sending destruction to Iraqi lands through their mutual borders. On the other hand, the American-Iraqi attack against the city of Tala'far, which is parallel to these borders and from which gunmen have escaped through a network of tunnels, has continued.

The American army has opened a new front at Al Ratbah in Al Anbar city, targeting elements of Al Qaeda Organization, where they are said to be active.

In a press conference, Sa'dun Al Dulaimi, Iraqi defense minister, has strongly criticized Damascus and has confirmed that it is responsible for the sneaking of hundreds of Arab fighters to his country. He added, "I am calling our dear neighbors to fear Allah and stop sending destruction to Iraq." He continued, "Hasibah, Al Ratbah, Al Rumanah and other regions have become hostages at the hands of terrorists, who came from all over the globe and have not found a comfortable gate to enter the country except through Syria."

He considered, "The borders' problem that we are facing against the Syrians on borders that are 615 km long is that all the murderous dreadful fatal sneaking comes to us through these borders." He added, "This desperate gate that we hoped to be a gate for goodness has become a gate for evil."

Al Dulaimi confirmed, "If there was an intention on behalf of the Syrian party to make the borders with us an entry for the wicked, I have no capacity to place a soldier at each one meter. Nevertheless, we would find the best solution for this problem by the end of the year."

He did not give any additional details.

One man's destruction is another's moral equivalent of our founding fathers. Why, he's calling for the repression of George Washington! Does Mike Moore know about this? A movie must be made!
