Remember how that "No blood for oil" was one of the fingers stuck in GWB's eye during the Iraq invasion? Apparently the specter of "No blood for oil" is threatening to return, it is just a matter of KGB FSB doing its usual whispering in the right ears, and soon we shall see the old placards dusted off and back in the streets. From a Russian Free Press (a joke if there ever was one) site:
However, many experts are inclined to think that a military scenario is inevitable. And not only for political but also for economic reasons. Lebanese TV channel "Al Mayyaddin" showed an interview with the head of the Center for Strategic Studies in Damascus, Dr. Imad Fawzi Shuaibi, who presented the results of studies of the Norwegian company Ansic in 2010. It turns out that Syria had scouted 37 billion tons of oil at a depth of only 250 meters. Daily oil production in the country could surpass the Kuwaiti production and reach 6 million barrels (compare to Saudi Arabia daily production of 12 million barrels). In addition to oil more gas was found in Syria. By the volume of proven reserves the country is now the fourth largest in the world. The video recording of the interview was removed from the server YouTube the other day...So the Google is involved too. Now it is certain...

Maybe. But Obongo is sure to weighing the negative polling (two-thirds of Americans saying forget it) versus his hopes for 2014.
Yeah, I gather the vote in Congress will be against the attack. Which is what he wants in his heart of hearts, I suspect.
