The Road to Damascus
From the NYT:
Quote:
"The report concludes there is probable cause to believe that high-level Syrian officials were involved in the Hariri assassination, that there's clear evidence of obstruction of justice on the part of the Syrians, failure to cooperate," Mr. Bolton said. "That is what the Security Council needs to take up in a serious way."
Asked if sanctions against Damascus were under consideration, he said only, "We're considering still a range of options."
Jack Straw, Britain's foreign secretary, after arriving in Birmingham, Ala., with Ms. Rice, said of the findings, "you cannot leave a report like this on the table."
"We have to consider it and consider it actively," he said.
He and Ms. Rice were careful not to recommend any specific possible actions against Syria.
