Top Syria cleric threatens attacks on US and EU

• AP
Syria's top Sunni Muslim cleric has warned Western countries against military intervention in Syria and threatened to retaliate with suicide bombings in the United States and Europe if his country comes under attack.

Western countries have shown no willingness to open a Libyan-style military campaign against the regime of President Bashar Assad, who has launched a bloody crackdown on the seven-month uprising against his rule, and NATO's chief said last week the alliance has "no intention whatsoever" of intervening in Syria.

"I say to all of Europe, I say to America, we will set up suicide bombers who are now in your countries, if you bomb Syria or Lebanon," Hassoun said in a speech late Sunday. "From now on an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth." - Since the CIA is well known for causing harm around the globe for the purposes of starting military occupations, I don't doubt that if there was a suicide bomber on US soil, it would be something done by directions from our out of control government through the use of CIA operatives.
