Secretary of state John Kerry has tonight announced a deal that will see a ceasefire in Syrian within a week following a meeting of The International Syria Support Group in Berlin.
Earlier in the day, Kerry tweeted that he had spoken with Sergey Lavrov, the Russian foreign minister, about the need for an end to fighting in the Middle Eastern nation.
However, it is unclear which of the multiple forces fighting in Syria have signed up to the ceasefire, or how it will be enforced.

I’m going to win the lottery next week. I’m going to buy a big house on an island with a runway and my own plane.
The list, Ping

LOL!
Bull feathers.
The price is 160 billion .
Per day.
Really? Munich?
These guys cannot do better than Munich?
What could possibly go wrong?
How long before ISIS says something along the lines of “We never said that.”
Anyone have an over/under?
I give it within 48 hours.
Oh really?
Did ISIS agree sign on to the cease fire?
Or cease beheadings I should say.
I have to ask, is Kerry on drugs?
The Russians are winning, and have offered Syria a “or else” plan. Kerry is simply trying to take the credit.

PETRAEUS: SYRIA CAN’T BE PUT TOGETHER AGAIN: Retired Army Gen. David Petraeus expressed doubt in a recent interview with The Hill that Syria can be pieced back together after a nearly five-year civil war.
“Can Syria actually be put back together again? It is by no means clear that it can be put together again; in fact, I tend to think not, but we shall see,” he said in an interview last week.
He made the comments as Secretary of State John Kerry tries to save a struggling peace process between the Shiite-backed Syrian government and Sunni opposition rebels. The conflict helped fuel the rise of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.
Kerry is pushing for a cease-fire in Syria in order to get the process back on track when talks resume on Feb. 25.
But Russia has in recent weeks stepped up air attacks on the rebel groups, shoring up Syrian President Bashar Assad’s government and making it less likely to participate in a process that calls for him to step down.

Are you being Sarcastic? Or do you like parroting the official Obama lie about the Russians?
Not going to happen. Same as a cease fire in the West Bank.
These days they just declare great wins out of thin air.
Tomorrow Kerry will announce he negotiated a peace treaty with cancer during a summit on neptune.
This is a fallback option for Kerry. In case he doesn’t get the Nobel Peace Prize for his deal with the Iranians, maybe he can get one for peace in Syria...which he would have to share with Putin, Lavrov, and Assad.
He needs a hug.
He needs a hug.
I am providing truth to those here that are duped by FR false doctrine
And all it took was total, abject surrender!
If you think that the Syrian Muslims being killed by Russia are not jihadists then you are the biggest fool on FR.
How many hours will this Cease Fire last?
