Bush Has Exit Strategy... For Syria

Another 2,000 Bug Out, Chanting "Just Keep Timothy Haag Away From Us!"

Don't let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya:

BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) - Two thousand more Syrian troops have left Lebanon, lowering Syria's military presence to 8,000 soldiers, the smallest deployment it's had here since the second year of the country's 1975-90 civil war, a military official said.

...

At the time of Hariri's assassination, about 14,000 Syrian troops were in Lebanon. About 4,000 soldiers left in the first phase of a withdrawal that was completed March 17.

The Syrian army's presence made Damascus the power broker of Lebanese politics. The Lebanese opposition strongly resented Syria's domination, but the pro-Syrian government said Syrian troops were necessary for the country's stability.

Gee I wish I had a new fact, a new insight, or some thing of interest to say about this post. But since I never let that stop me before:

There once was a weenie named ACE ...

Last week, Lebanon grudgingly accepted an international investigation into the assassination after weeks of saying such an inquiry would infringe upon its sovereignty.

Now, THAT's humorous!!!

All that they need to add there is a condemnation of Bush for threatening Syria and getting them to withdraw troops ...

oh yeah, the inquiry into the Hariri assassination and the possible UN link (UN vehicle going at a suspiciously slow rate of speed by the scene), looks mighty interesting ...

Between 1. Kofi and Son's delightful antics, 2. the international abuse of goats and others (resulting in grave penis injury), and, 3. possible political assassination, all in the news simultaneously, I'm thinking the UN may soon get offered its own show ( by Al-Jazeera, of course) ...

All that's missing, as far as I can see, is a Luke and Laura disco rape scene, featuring ... hmmmmm .... maybe Kofi Annan (as Laura) and Condi Rice* (as Luke)?

*she does get to wear those kick-ass boots in the scene.
