U.S. "Aiming at Syria Regime Change"
(Telegraph-UK) Anton La Guardia - Israel predicted Tuesday that America would impose fresh sanctions on Syria in an attempt to overthrow President Bashar al-Assad. Shaul Mofaz, the defense minister, said he believed sanctions would follow publication of a UN report expected to implicate senior Syrian officials in the murder of Rafik al-Hariri, the former Lebanese prime minister. On Saturday, President Bush and his national security council are to discuss America's options on Syria, ranging from tightening existing limited sanctions to military action.
