ROSTOCK, Germany - President Bush blamed Syria and Iran for new Middle East violence Wednesday, faced further defiance from Iran and North Korea and got an acerbic retort from Russian President Vladimir Putin to U.S. criticism.

The stack of problems grew as Bush flew here for a 36-hour visit en route to St. Petersburg for difficult talks with Putin about Russia's retreat from democracy, and then a summit of world powers. Arriving after dark, the president and his wife, Laura, walked down a red carpet lined by a military honor guard and headed straight to their hotel.

On Thursday, Bush and Merkel will hold a press conference in the port city of Stralsund and dine with some of Merkel's constituents at a barbecue in Trinwillershagen, a rural town that was once a collective farm known as the "Red Banner."

Thousands of police were deployed for Bush's protection. Stralsund's residents were forced to move their cars out of the Stralsund's historic center, and everything from bicycles to flower pots was ordered brought inside. Anti-Bush demonstrations were planned well away from the areas that he will tour.

Bemerkung

Der Schnoodle ist eine Kreuzung aus Zwergschnauzer mit Zwergpudel. Da er wie der Pudel nicht haart, ist er gut f�r Allergiker geeignet. DAs Fell sollte wellig und weich sein. Es gibt den Schnoodle auch als Toy und Standard-Gr�sse. Er ist ein lebhafter Hund, der sich gut f�r Agility u.�. eignet.

5. wtf do Syria and Iran have to do with anything?

I think the only crime they're guilty of is not taking US orders and being defiant regimes, as far as the recent "Middle East troubles."

Yes they have their own internal problems that are serious, but it has nothing to do with the activity as of late.

8. Hey, Chimp! Repeat after me, "Israel is to blame for the new Middle East

violence." They are bombing, they are not being bombed. They blew up six bridges. They are killing many innocent civilians. They are starving out the Palestinians. They took out the power plant in Gaza. Let's get it straight. Put down your glass and get off the booze so you can use your noodle.
