Anyone remember how this time last year Obama and Kerry Pushed for Bombing Syria? [View all]

[J_J_]

The Obama administration is currently in the midst of its final push to convince skeptical lawmakers to give it the green-light to strike Syria, and it's unclear how the new developments will impact the debate in Washington, let alone abroad where the White House still hopes to find a few more allies. Of course, with congressional approval for a U.S.-led strike uncertain to say the least, it's quite possible that Kerry may have accidentally stumbled onto a potential face-saving solution for the administration.

For what it's worth, Kerry's initial comments came when asked if there was anything Assad could do to avert an American-led attack. "Sure, he could turn over every bit of his weapons to the international community within the next week, without delay," Kerry said. "But he isn’t about to."

What Kerry never expected is that Russia would step up, Syria would agree, and the UN would all help to stop the planned US bombing.


It has only been a little over a year, and now 'oh my gawd ISIS, we must bomb Syria'

Do we have selective collective amnesia or something?

Seriously, who cannot see through this bullshit?
