30 December 2003

UNITED NATIONS, Dec 29 (IPS) - Less than 72 hours before it completes its two-year term in the 15-member U.N. Security Council, Syria formally introduced a resolution Monday calling for a nuclear weapons-free zone in the politically volatile Middle East.

The resolution, which was apparently prompted by Libya's decision last week to come clean on its weapons of mass destruction (WMD), is implicitly aimed at Israel, the only country in the Middle East with nuclear weapons

4. Those Arab States

should disarm because Israel is their friend.(ha ha ha ).

5. Keep in mind that Israel is surrounded by

Arab states with written declarations promising to drive the tiny nation into the sea.

If they didn't have nukes, we would have had Holocaust II by now.
