From the BBC News website:
The United States has said there is "mounting evidence" that Syria, Iran and Hezbollah are planning to topple the Lebanese government.
The White House said Syria hoped to stop the formation of an international tribunal to try suspects in the killing of former Lebanese PM Rafik Hariri.
Spokesman Tony Snow said any attempt to destabilise the Lebanese government would violate UN resolutions.
A UN team has been investigating who was behind Mr Hariri's death in 2005.
Hezbollah demand
The BBC News website's world affairs correspondent Paul Reynolds says the White House statement appears to result from the tense situation in Lebanon, where Hezbollah is demanding one third of cabinet seats, thereby giving it a veto over decisions.
Such a veto would enable it to block approval of the international tribunal to try suspects in Mr Hariri's assassination, our correspondent says.
The Hezbollah leader, Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah, has threatened street demonstrations in support of his demand.
The US is concerned that this instability could result in the fall of the government of Prime Minister Fouad Siniora.
The statement also casts doubt on any willingness by the Bush administration to consider Syria and Iran as potential partners over the future of Iraq, an idea that the Baker commission on Iraq is expected to suggest, our correspondent adds.
Hariri tribunal
The White House said it was "increasingly concerned by mounting evidence that the Syrian and Iranian government, Hezbollah, and their Lebanese allies are preparing plans to whistle for a cab and when it came near The license plate said fresh and it had dice in the mirror, If anything I can say this cab is rare, But I thought 'Now forget it' - 'Yo homes to Bel Air' I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8 And I yelled to the cabbie 'Yo homes smell ya later'I looked at my kingdomI was finally there To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel Air.

I'd rather a link to the original item than having to read it in fucking italics. Though having, like most people, access to the BBC website, I had read it already, and strangely, not felt compelled to share it with XLT nor anyone else, assuming, that if the intended audience were going to be interested, they'd have fucking read it as well already.

I'd read the article already, and, having already found the Bell End joke about as funny as waking up and finding you're Elusive, I fucking filtered it out.

It's funny because as you're reading it you have that BBC newsreader voice in mind, and for a split second that voice slips into the FPOBL theme before you realise it's a joke.
