Syria is granting free passage across its border with Iraq to volunteers who wish to join the fight against the U.S. and British forces. Thus far, dozens of volunteers, primarily Palestinians from the refugee camps in Lebanon, have crossed over into Iraq through Syrian-controlled border posts.


The passage of volunteers with Damascus's consent has given rise to the theory that the U.S.-fired missile that struck a Syrian bus traveling in Iraq was an intentional attack on a busload of such volunteers. The bus left Damascus on Sunday and was hit by the missile some 50 kilometers inside Iraqi territory. The missile strike left five people dead and dozens injured.


Speaking on the subject, the Syrian military analyst, Hitham al-Kilani, said in an interview on Al Jazeera, on 24 March, that "the Syrian border was opened to Syrian, Arab and Muslim volunteers wishing to reach Iraq and participate in the fighting against the American invasion."[...]

Don't forget all those theories about where Iraq was hiding a bunch of its banned weapons. Read the whole article. It goes on to say that Syria is the only country in the area to open its border in this manner. Even Iran has kept its border closed. The article reminds us of where a lot of the banned material going into Iraq came through...you guessed it.


Update: Then there's this article from FoxNews. "Officials: Syria Sending Equipment to Iraq"


Update2: Rumsfeld just specifically mentioned Syria in his briefing, and called these shipments a "hostile act."
