Bad time to be a rooster
The Syrians are getting even more gang-ho. Their accusations against P.M. Sanioura, The Hariri Family, The Americans and the Lebanese Media are escalating. Mr. Otari, the Syrian Prime Minister, speaks of the “gates of hell” if the Americans attack Syria. (Mr. Otari was obviously mimicking French President Jacques Chirac’s warning to the Americans on the eve of their Iraq attack).
Mr. Otari, you have chosen the wrong time to be a rooster. If you don’t have anything to be afraid of, why all the noise? Chill out.
Besides, we have just banned all foreign poultry from entering the Lebanese territory.
