In November 2005, US Ambassador to the UN John Bolton warned the Syrians "What we want are not speeches or words," . "We want cooperation, full and complete, and immediate". The same week, French President Jacques Chirac added "It is not conceivable, admissible, acceptable for the international community … that Syria refuses to cooperate," … Chirac warned of sanctions if al-Assad "persists in not wanting to listen or understand". The United States described Assad's speech that month as "appalling".

Serious warnings to Bashar … the "Evil Moron who's running Syria" 

The past few days we found out that the civilized world has given up on Syria again, long time ago in the case of President Bush, more recently in the case of President Sarkozy who earlier gave Damascus a public deadline (until Saturday) to interfere in an effective way in Lebanon. Syria missed the deadline and failed to interfere… or "help" as they call the desired Syrian interference lately. Syria refused to (failed to) "help"… not to be confused with American/French/European/Moderate Arab demands last few years for Syria to stay away completely from Lebanon.

In his testimony before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee's Subcommittee on the Near East on November 8, 2007, David Welch explained how his administration is

"working with our partners in Europe and in the Middle East to coordinate efforts so as to maximize effectiveness, especially in the run-up to Lebanon's elections. As an example of this coordination, Secretary Rice led a meeting on the margins of last week's Expanded Neighbors Conference in Istanbul with the Foreign Ministers of France, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, and Jordan, as well as the Secretary General of the Arab League to discuss the upcoming elections in Lebanon. We expect to consult more closely with our partners in the region on this subject in the coming weeks"

Syria's foreign minister who was in Istanbul that day was not invited. Apparently his presence was not as necessary to "maximize effectiveness" as that of the UAE's foreign minister.

Yet it was Syria, and not Saudi Arabia or Egypt (or the UAE) that disappointed the French and Americans in its failure to enable them to announce that they (The French and the Americans) succeeded in making the Lebanese democratic presidential elections a success.

Since we did not witness any new assassination of anti Syria Lebanese politicians for many months (El-Hajj was pro Syria) and since Syria got credited more than once by American generals in Iraq for its seemingly effective efforts in helping calm the violence in Iraq, Syria's evilness is not the issue these days. The apparent main (new for 2008) reason why the two presidents gave up on Syria seems to be related to their impression that Bashar is not very honest or trustworthy… he promises things that he does not deliver.

You can't trust the Syrians. Sarkozy has been dealing with Assad (by phone) for about a month now. Assad had a whole month to deliver a solution in Lebanon. He did not. He lost the confidence of the civilized world (Which includes Saudi Arabia by the way).

No one put any such deadlines on the numerous Saudi, Egyptian, French, American, Arab League, Italian, Spanish, or Russian initiatives that were promising to help Lebanon. Since Syria was ordered out of Lebanon in 2005, the other countries had sufficient time (and influence) to demonstrate, collectively, that they can replace Syria in dealing with Lebanon's considerable challenges and difficulties. They did not. Instead, they came back to Syria in the last minute to ask for a quick solution to all the mess they created the past two years. A mess that is not only limited to Lebanon. Syria was expected to deliver a solution in Lebanon without the luxury of being able to even have an active direct discussion with Lebanon's new management: The United States and Saudi Arabia.

Two years ago, the Syrian President offended and outraged many people when he called Lebanese Prime minister Fouad Seniora "abdon moussayar li-abden moussayar" (led slave of a led slave). He was referring to his impression of Seniora's place in the real hierarchy of Lebanese politics: Seniora's boss is young billionaire Saad Hariri (who picked Seniora for the job), Hariri's boss is Saudi King Abdullah.

In case any reader is still saddened by Bashar's unfair characterization of the leader of the truly independent and democratic Lebanese M14 government, here is what Mr. Fouad Seniora, President Bush's one and only acceptable Lebanese, wrote in Saudi Newspaper Asharq al-Awsat last August:

???? ????? ??? ???? ?? ??? ??????? ??????? ??????? ??????? ??????? ??????? ??????? ???? ???? ?????? ?????? ?????? ????????? ?????? ??????? ????? ?? ????? ?????? ?????? ?? ??? ?????? ?? ??? ????? ??????? ???????? ??? ????? ?????????? ??? ??? ??? ????? ???????? ?????? ????? ?????? ??????? ??????? ???????? ????? ?????????? ????? ??????? .

Translation: "As for King Abdullah Ben Abd alaziz (King of Saudi Arabia), the grand human being, the grand leader, the noble knight, may god preserve his friendliness and prolong his rule, and allow us to continue enjoying his presence and his work, reward him for all that he provided and participated in, reward him for his struggle and hard work for the success and progress of the kingdom … citadel of all Arabs and Muslims, and his struggle for the benefit of the Arab world and for peace and freedom and Arabism and independence and stability of Lebanon's democratic system and its successful coexistence."

Given how highly Mr. Seniora thinks of the Saudi King and his indispensable role in Lebanon (and the whole universe actually), wouldn't it be fair to not expect much from the Syrians given that the Saudi King can not even receive a phone call from their President? Where is the hard working Saudi King when you need him?

But apparently, even the Saudi King has given up on the Syrians.

Here is a quote from Michael Young's column this week:

"This week, a story in the Kuwaiti daily As-Siyassah quoted a Lebanese diplomat in Cairo as saying the Saudis believe Syria has sponsored anti-regime Salafists in the kingdom itself. As-Siyassah is close to King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia and no Lebanese diplomat would have made such a charge on the record without getting a Saudi green light to do so."

Michael Young, opinion editor of the Lebanese Daily Star, is one of the more determined Syrian regime fighters in the media. In this opinion piece he is concluding that "Damascus may have just lost the Arabs". And he is quoting the Kuwaiti daily As-Siyassah.

The amazing As-Siyassah … the Kuwaiti newspaper "close to King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia".

Few month ago, after the neocons and their friends in Israel started to "leak" on a daily basis stories to Murdoch-owned media (the London Times, the WSJ …) that Israel hit a Syrian/Korean nuclear reactor during its mysterious and "top secret" mission over the Euphrates, I received a phone call from an Israeli journalist who told me: "My editor just informed me that while researching the subject he uncovered a year-old story published in Kuwait's As-Siyassah newspaper in which they reported that Syria was already working with North Korea on a nuclear reactor!". The Israeli newspaper was about to publish this shocking discovery as its main headline story.

I told my Israeli friend that I will email him something that will make his editor forget about this story.

Since we just switched to 2008, this is a good time for me to share with you some of my collection of the most honest anti-Syrian-regime news and analysis that I have been saving over the past few years.

The sources are: Saudi owned media, Lebanese March 14th media and blogs, "Syrian oppositions" sites and blogs… some independent and many Neocon/Saudi financed, supported or promoted.

But most of these creative stories started from the Kuwaiti As-Siyassah … the newspaper "close to King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia" newspaper. The stories are hilarious. But at from 2004 until today many Syrian regime adversaries (journalists, politicians, readers …) were quoting them and cross referencing them as if they are facts. If you argued with any regime opponent on any blog you probably noticed that these stories were quite successful in convincing many people that the regime is about to fall .. that Mehlis got the perfect smoking gun … that Syria, Iran, hizbollah, Bashar, the Alawite army officers are all ready to stab each other in the back out of their desperation.

I wish President Bush can read these examples of all the honesty, productivity, objectivity, reliability, independence, and professionalism of his favorite side in the Middle East… then to remind us again why he is fed up with the Syrian regime.

Bashar, who is suffering from grave sickness (both physically and mentally) and can not sleep at night, was very worried that Khaddam is becoming too powerful and that the Syrian people in all the mosques are getting restless … therefore, he rushed to buy expensive gifts to the generals in charge of each of the divisions of the Syrian army … Bashar bought each one of them a Mercedes and gave each one $100,000 as a bonus for their loyalty… and for the Eid! (which Bashar never did before he got this scared)

Former Syrian Chief of Staff Hikmat Shihabi who knows everything about the Syrian army is now working with the Americans to help them overthrow Bashar through a swift American military operation … it is practically a done deal.

Poor Bashar.

Defending Sunnah reported:

Basically … Assad and his other regime thugs panicked when they realized that Hariri had a recording pen when he met Assad and that pen has a recording of Assad's voice telling Hariri that he will kill him. Assad's panicky reaction was to meet with Lebanon's Berri and Nasrallah to tell them that they need to help him escape the Mehlis investigation by "setting Lebanon on fire"

The Lebanese Kataeb official site (Amin Gemayel's) quotes this story:

Alawite people met Bashar (many on their wheelchairs) to beg him to give his brother and brother in law to the Mehlis investigation to save the Alawite people. But Bashar told Hosni Mubarak that his sister Bushra (Asef Shawkat's wife) did not allow him to do so … and what she decides is final as far as Bashar is concerned… even if it meant the destruction of Syria.

That Bashar is telling the Americans he is ready to sell Hizbollah in exchange for establishing relations with him.

After he threw all his weight towards the Iranians, Bashar (like a typical child) hesitated. After he sold Syria to the Shiites thinking that Iran will save his neck, he started to think … then he got arrogant … then when he realized that Iran itself is about to be threatened by the Americans, Bashar realized that Iran is about to sell Syria and Hizbollah to the Americans … so he decided to switch to America.
