Why do you guys think that the Bush administration is warning Syria but not Israel about weapons of mass distraction?
That is something serious that may be a big reason for the anti-America demonstrations that the whole world faced couple weeks ago...

B/c unlike Syria, Israel has no intentions of wiping out another country. The entire Arab world would love to see Israel off the map of the Earth. however, the opossite is not true. Therefore, Israel has no choice but to defend themselves by possessing these weapons in case they are attacked. And that's the truth

UUU.... You aer wrong somehow!!!
First of all, Israel has invaded some Arab countries and they are still occupaing some parts of Syria, Egypr, Palestine, and Lebanon.
In addition, Israel is a country that was established inside Palestine (by invading Palestine). Before 1948 there weren't any country exists called Isreal....
Furthermore, Israel is using illegal weapons in killing Palestinian civilians in everyday life....
Also, Israelies are saying they will establish a country from Nile river till Tigris. They call that (their dream country) Great Israel.

ok, deal with the real, Israel is not going away. when a nation was established makes no difference, its ability to endure does.
Palestine ceased to exist when israel was created, again, when a nation passes into history does not matter as much as its inability to endure.
now why we do things, who is we? me? you? anyone? i dont personally know anyone directly supporting or opposing either side of the middle east peace issue.
No the decisions are being made by a few, a few who with the priveledges of rule and power, are dictating terms to all weaker nations.
In this case, Israel has been sided with the west and more specifically the US in global dominance, syria, on the other hand has cast its lot with those in opposition to US-Israeli dominance of the middle east.
I would referr you to an ancient dialogue between the greek city state of athens and a much smaller weaker island that git in the way of their imperialistic agenda, melcea. It was short, tragic, and you will never guess who endured and who failed to.
Now i guess there was a time when i was upset by the state of the world, until i realized that dreams and ideals would change nothing. To change one must be honest with what one sees.
So to answer why syria, because we can, because syria has been beligerant to our agendas in the past, and again, because we can.
In the end, it will happen, if the ruling class of the west deem it useful, to their goals, not the goals of americans or even of america, but their own.
