My sources in Washington, DC tell me that mini-Hariri is urging the US government to attack Syria, and to overthrow its government. Hariri is probably assuring US officials that the Syrian people would greet US soldiers as "liberators", and shower them with "flowers and sweets"; and that the Syrian people would mount no resistance to US occupation; and that a small number of troops would be required to keep the "peace" in Syria; and that Syrian pro-US liberals would run the country, and that Syria would quickly emerge as a model for the entire region. OK, Sa`d.
