#3 SH, This is strictly a Canadian-Iranian issue: We Merkins don't have a dog in this fight. Like Frank G said, let the Canucks show that they're pussies.

Not that we're blameless in this regard: A more vigorous response to the Beiruit Bombing of our Marines there would have solved a whole passle of problems. We've fallen a long ways from the days of TR, who sent in the Marines to rescue a woman and her children.

#4 Ptah - I've long thought Reagan should've smoked the entire Bekaa Valley for those Marines' deaths. You can't send battalions in for every kidnapped or killed citizen, but when a NKorea holds a Pueblo, Iranians hold the hostages, or Iran cracks a Canadians' skull in prison, you've gotta make a stand. If you don't defend your nationals when it counts, you're nothing

#7 Frank,
Why would Americans be attending a trade show in Beriut? Until Beka is cleaned up, I would think that Lebanon is a market/territory that I would leave to other non-American businesses.

#8 Why would Americans be attending a trade show in Beriut?

ya lost me on that one....? I wouldn't deal with Lebanon until Syria's ejected, the Paleos are cleaned out of the Hellhole, and their old system of government is restored, returning stability. It used to be a beautiful country, and as usual, Arafat's touch destroyed it

#9 Canadien government spokeswoman Faith Lovejoy-Holmes, reading from a prepared statemant, was quoted today saying, "We can now, couragesly, forthrightly and thouroughly, put this matter in context. But we are steadfast in our opinions and will never back down on our principles or our rejection of any unilateral, destabilizing, uncivility".
