Rice to Syria: 'Knock it off' in Lebanon
US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice warned Syria to "knock it off" and end interference in Lebanon she said contributed at least indirectly to the latest political assassination in Beirut.

Rice said, en route from a Middle East swing, that she did not know who was behind the death of an anti-Syrian politician and former head of the Lebanese communist party, George Hawi, whose car was blown up earlier on Tuesday.

But she added: "There is an atmosphere of instability (in Lebanon) and Syria's activities are part of that context and part of that atmosphere, and they need to knock it off."

1. Attack 'em all, Rice. Damn predators. World's full of them.
I'm questioning my own ideals at this point. Apathy seems becoming to be the best solution...

2. Is it me, or is Rice FAR more visible than Powell?
She's constantly in the news. I wonder if Powell will ever put the dots together?

4. Kindasleezy Rice: Diplomatic to the Core. . .
