The authors comment on how the administration of U.S. President George W. Bush has reacted to the Israeli airstrike against a facility in northern Syria in September 2007. They claim that the Bush administration has thrown an unprecedented veil of secrecy around the Israeli airstrike and has briefed only a handful of very senior members of Congress. They call on President Bush to brief all members of Congress on the Israeli airstrike. They also explain the implications of the airstrike for the U.S.-North Korea diplomatic relations.
