Yes, there’s so much hisory in Damascus… I thought that little part where they talked about Syria being on Bush’ axis of evil quite interesting. It just seems so irresponsible and has harmed so much from so many perspectives for Bush to have said that… so lame that guy…

Bush bashing going on here? Can I join?
I regret not having crossed over to Syria when I was in Egypt a few years ago. I find the place quite exotic; must visit one day.

It does sound like Bush bashing but as Ann points out, we were just talking about poetry…:~) Yes, Syria does seem like an exotic place. So many places to visit.
