Syrian President Blasts Iraq Invasion
FoxNews -- October 17, 2003

DAMASCUS, Syria — President Bashar Assad assailed the U.S. invasion of Iraq and ridiculed its accomplishments Thursday, even as his country offered surprise support for American-proposed resolution on Iraq in the U.N. Security Council.

The vote by Syria, the only Arab country on the council, came despite tension between Washington and Damascus. The United States has accused Syria of allowing fighters to slip into Iraq to join forces attacking the coalition.

"The world has discovered that the war of 'liberation' of Iraq has liberated the Iraqi citizen of the state, the institutions, the sovereignty, dignity, food, water and electricity," Assad told the Organization of the Islamic Conference summit in Malaysia.
