--just a little thank-you note for being asked to leave Syria for the Sudan.

Israel couldn`t possibly have been behind this because there was no significant target; it just isn`t Mossad`s style to blow up 17 random civilians with 200 Kilos of explosives to no purpose.

That is what the al-Qaida types in Iraq do. Maybe some of them got chased back to Syria and are blowing things up in Damascus instead of in Baghdad.
