Washington Makes Distinction Between Syria and Iran

Posted by Matt in February 7th, 2007

Bush, in his speech, did not mention the possibility of engaging Iran and Syria with the aim of stabilizing Iraq and the Middle East. It is possible, however, to see signals that the Bush administration is beginning to make a distinction between Iran and Syria.

From a strictly rhetorical point of view, such differences are hard to find. Bush, talking about recent strife in Lebanon, said that “Syria, Iran and Hezbollah are working to destabilize Lebanese society,” adding that their goals are clear and that those actors want to avoid Hezbollah’s disarmament, to obstruct the establishment of a tribunal to investigate former Prime Minister Rafiq Hariri’s death and to bring down the Fuad Siniora-led government. Beyond the classical, bitter rhetoric of Bush against Iran and Syria, however, some differences in the U.S. approach toward the two countries can be found. The administration appears to be separating Syria from Iran.

He said that Tel Aviv and the U.S. fleet in the Persian Gulf would be the targets that would be set on fire in Iran's crushing response. (World Tribune, June 22, 2007) Iran has expanded its naval presence in the Straits of Hormuz, the passage for an estimated 40 percent of global crude oil shipments.
