Syria says cannot stop militants entering Iraq
LONDON, Oct. 25 ââ¬â Syria cannot stop militants entering Iraq to attack U.S. forces, Syrian Foreign Minister Farouq al-Shara said in an interview with a British Sunday newspaper. The comments are likely to fuel tensions between Washington and Damascus, already strained over a vote in the U.S. Congress to impose sanctions on Syria.
''They are very determined and many of them dream of seeing an American tank,'' Shara said of militants who cross the border into Iraq.
''We are doing everything we can,'' he told the Sunday Telegraph. ''We have tightened our checkpoints and are turning people back. But the border is long and we cannot cover it all.
** ''If America, a rich superpower cannot stop Mexicans crossing into the United States, then how can we, a poor country, be expected to stop Palestinians getting into Iraq.'' **

Actually of course it ought to be easy for the Syrians to control their borders, since unlike us, they aren't awash with jews controlling their domestic policy.
Of course, we can't point that out. I think its very clever of Syria, except that the newspapers here will never report it anyway.

Coldblooded. He knows very well the American regime never tried to stop Mexicans from coming in. He's practically begging someone to say as much.
The word "superpower", in current circumstances, is getting idiotic. I think he knows that too.
