“Bush – Olmert: the Syrian coast blockade”
The Russian decision today to accept the Syrian debt in euros rather than dollars… preparing for the possibility of freezing Syrian assets in dollars confirms the information below.
Reported by Manar newspaper today, Olmert and Bush discussed the possibility of imposing a blockade on the Syrian coast; both decided to launch a campaign on unconventional Syria armament capabilities, in order to start imposing a blockade on the Syrian coast.
In case you wondered why “Blockade the Syrian coast”, then this is the answer: missile carrier takes part in big Russian navy maneuver starting in Mediterranean.
This was the three hours [before?] Bush’s unannounced meeting with Siniora, Harriri (Lebanon) and Jordan’s King Abdullah II in Jordan as reported on Al Akhbar today.
