Is the EU With Us, or With the Terrorists?
(Washington Times) Editorial - Foreign fighters are not the only ones providing aid and comfort to the enemies of Iraqi reconstruction.

In Damascus, a weekend business conference funded by the EU brought 180 European officials and business executives to strengthen economic cooperation and pave the way for a Syrian-EU trade pact by the end of the year. It is clear that this European coddling of Syria is a direct response to the growing movement toward American sanctions against the nation. It is difficult to determine whether the EU is for us - or for the terrorists.
