Syria has switched all of the state's foreign currency transactions to euros from dollars amid a political confrontation with the United States, the head of state-owned Commercial Bank of Syria said on Monday.
"This is a precaution. We are talking about billions of dollars," Duraid Durgham told Reuters.

An Israeli special operations team is working undercover in Iran, according to a report Sunday in a British newspaper.
The soldiers are on a mission to prevent the Iranians from succeeding in their bid to develop a nuclear weapon. They are involved in locating uranium enrichment facilities in Iran, according to the British Sunday Times, and are currently based in neighboring northern Iraq.
The United States is supporting the move, says the paper.

Comment: The Israelis are in Iran hunting for intelligence that they can twist and distort and use to justify ethnically cleansing the Middle East of its Arab population.
Last September, two of her majesty's loyal servants were arrested by Iraqi police (and then released to British forces) in the Southern Iraqi city of Basra. The two men were dresssed in full Arab garb driving a car full of explosives. They had been shooting and killing Iraqi civilians and, according to Iraqi officials, attempting to plant explosives. Almost immediately, it was clear that the arrest of the two men was evidence for what we have suspected for a long time - that most 'Islamic terrorism' is being orchestrated by agencies within the British, American and Israeli governments.
Today, another report has surfaced which appears to provide further evidence that the Western 'Democracies' that claim to be bringing freedom to Iraq are in fact determined to ignite a civil war in Iraq and set in motion a long-held agenda to embroil the greater Middle East in a massive and bloody war.

Eye-Ran. That's what the Americans call Iran - pronounced Ee-Ra'an. This is a minor matter, compared to how the U.S. is bullying Iran over its nuclear program, even while rewarding India for committing worse transgressions of international nuclear rules.
All nation-states operate in their own interests, of course. But American disregard for the law, and the moral and political inconsistency of its foreign policy, has hit a new low under George W. Bush.

There's been a buzz on the net for the past few days that maybe, finally, Bush is going to get his comeuppance. Cunningham has been sentenced to hard time, Katharine Harris, the "President Maker", is tainted by a related bribery scandal, Bush has been shown to be a liar (yet again) in public via the Katrina video conference expose, and most of all, the "uproar" over the Dubai Buy.
Don't kid yourselves: they're blowing smoke and snowing you.

SOTT has been saying for some time that all the bombings and civil unrest in Iraq have very likely been due to "coalition covert ops." In these two pieces below, one an article and the other an interview, we get a view inside the mind of a psychopath, Daniel Pipes. Pipes reveals for us the true intentions of the Neocons. Of course, he attempts to maintain the tissue of lies, that the Neocons really wanted a "free and democratic Iraq," and suggests, disingenuously that the Administration is not "thinking this way", i.e. that civil war in Iraq is a good thing. But it is clear that the Neocons ARE thinking this way and doing everything they can to make sure that it happens.
Summary: Record low approval ratings for the U.S. president G. Bush, while continually downplayed by the mainstream U.S. media, who never refer to him as "the phenomenally unpopular president" or "the widely despised George Bush" even though that is true, cannot be hid from international investors. Nor can the U.S. media hide the disastrous news coming out of Iraq and Afghanistan from the savvy international banking and investment community. They are even having a hard time hiding it from the United States public.
