Syria?

The Sunday Times ( UK ): A very thorougher and interesting article on the attack on Syria by Israel. The article looks at the many possible reasons. VIEWS has been very curious by the lack of reaction by Syria, complaints but nothing more very interesting, seem to be open season on Syria. If Syria is that weak that it cant react perhaps the USA could come in and try to start talks. Syria helps the USA in Iraq and Syria can became like Libya and became part of the international community. In other words Israel cant just attack without some reaction somewhere.

Iran

Daily Telegraph ( UK ): Interesting article on the prospects of air attacks on Iran to prevent them going nuclear. The one thing the West can not afford is a nuclear armed Iran.

New AG?

CNN: Reports that Michael B. Mukasey formally a Judge is in the frame to be the new Attorney General.

A President

The Boston Globe: A interesting article that looks at the powerful groups within the Republican and Democratic Party, and when and when not a Candidate can stand up to them. This comes off attack on General Petraeus by MoveON.org the Liberal pressure group. The Democrats need them and their money, that is pure politics and reality.

Meet the Press

Just saw Senator John McCain on Meet the Press, very good performance, shows why he would be a great President, a realist when it comes to Iraq but also kept his eye on the Democrats to show that when it comes to National Security that they are weak, McCain has learned the lessons of the Vietnam War, while the Democratic Opposition think their opposition to the war was a highlight in their history.
