How About That UN? Syria to Enforce Arms Embargo

I kid you not!

  • U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan said Friday that Syria has pledged to step up border patrols and work with the Lebanese army to stop the flow of weapons to Hezbollah.
  • Asked whether such measures would succeed in blocking arms shipments to Hezbollah, Annan replied: “I think it can happen. It may not be 100 percent, but it will make quite a lot of difference if the government puts in place the measures the government has discussed with me. I have no reason to believe it will not be done.”
  • Miri Eisin, a spokeswoman for Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, questioned whether Syria could provide a reliable force, saying the country helped finance and arm Hezbollah during the recent conflict. “Syria continues to be a safe haven for terrorism as we see with Hamas headquarters and with numerous rockets and missiles made by Syria and supplied by Syria that were fired against Israel in the months of July and August this year.”

    • You really didn’t expect any better than this did you?
