Condoleezza Rice Opposed Israeli Attack On Syrian Nuke Facility

After being presented with "jaw-dropping evidence" of Syrian nuclear activity, Condi Rice opposed action?

WTF?!??

From Atlas Shrugs:


"She is so screwed up that she thinks a nuclear Syria is not destabilizing but stopping them is. Anyone want to guess why America hasn’t taken on Iran’s nuclear plans?"

A MYSTERIOUS Israeli military strike on a suspected nuclear site in Syria last month was opposed by Condoleezza Rice, the American secretary of state, because she feared it would destabilise the region, according to a report this weekend.

Rice persuaded the Israelis to delay their operation, but not to call it off, after US officials were presented with “jaw-dropping” evidence of Syrian nuclear activity, the report said.

The Sunday Times revealed two weeks ago that Israeli commandos had seized samples of nuclear material, said to be of North Korean origin, during a daring raid on a Syrian military facility to prove to the Americans that an air attack was essential.

According to ABC News, Rice led the opposition inside the Bush administration to the Israeli strike, persuading them to shelve initial plans to hit the Syrian facility in the week of July 14.
The nuclear samples seized by ground commandos remain unidentified, but defence and intelligence sources in Washington believe they may have been connected to uranium enrichment.

Ilan Berman, a Middle East expert at the American Foreign Policy Council, said: “The consensus is that Israel struck a nuclear facility and the probability is that it was linked to enriching uranium.”


Hey Condi, THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS WAR IS FOR US TO DESTABILIZE THE AXIS OF EVIL;

that would be, Iraq, Iran, and Syria.

Get with the program. Seven years have already gone by and this woman doesn't understand the purpose of the war?

What the hell is wrong with Bush that he has her working for him?
