Congress will vote yes because the Minority Whip will force the issue and Boehner will line up a yes vote on his side because he'll say in exchange, Obama will not fight the debt ceiling issue.
This is, after give years soooo predictable.

No, they won’t. If the GOP votes for the strike, which risks a wider war, they will lose a substantial amount of their base and they will lose the House.
But maybe you’re right. The GOP does have a death wish. Just look at immigration.
