WASHINGTON President Obama is prepared to move ahead with a limited military strike on Syria, administration officials said on Thursday, even with a rejection of such action by Britains Parliament, an increasingly restive Congress, and lacking an endorsement from the United Nations Security Council.
Although the officials cautioned that Mr. Obama had not made a final decision, all indications suggest that the strike could occur as soon as United Nations inspectors, who are investigating the Aug. 21 attack that killed hundreds of Syrians, leave the country. They are scheduled to depart Damascus, the capital, on Saturday.
The White House is to present its case for military action against Syria to Congressional leaders on Thursday night. Administration officials assert that the intelligence will show that forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad carried out the chemical weapons attack in the suburbs of Damascus.
The intelligence does not tie Mr. Assad directly to the attack, officials briefed on the presentation said, but the administration believes that it has enough evidence to carry out a limited strike that would deter the Syrian government from using these weapons again.

“Look Magic, Yeah, I caught it. Yeah, from Reggie Love sometime last year....Or maybe from Mooch, hell who knows? But I need to know from you how to make my HIV ‘Announcement’ go as well as your’s did in ‘92”.
Well, by all means, let’s send him in all by himself!
He apparently didn’t want to act in the first place; hence the vacillating after the first reports of chemical strikes. Now he has an excuse, e.g., no international support.
ValJar runs the show.
The purple-lipped, Nobel-peace-prize-winning jackass needs to consult urgently with Generals Axelrod, Jarrett, and Rice! Good luck all on your own, you big-mouth, flap eared idiot.
You made your bed - now lay in it! With the liars at the NYT in with you!
I’m with Putin on this one.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA.
This clown is one sick puppy, i have never seen a world leader so intent on “getting his way”. America is in serious trouble with the rodeo clown at the helm.
The monkey with a hand grenade is all alone on this one!
Buckle your seat belts, everyone!
Hey Boehner, take off the magnifier glasses. He’s a pu$$y and a spoiled fraking brat.
I’m convinced he has a vested monetary interest in this.
Monetary and political.
Look up Obama’s half brother Malik - and look into his connection with the Muslim Brotherhood.
Nobel Peace Prize my ass.
Remember this? Gotta wonder right about mow.
Muslim Brotherhood claims ‘we have evidence that will put Obama in prison’
nobama is such a spoiled-child clown-president. Unfortunately, this bozo’s words and deeds effect us all. Just his intent of bombing another country drove my stock investments down quite a bit yesterday. Yet another reason to despise nobama/LIBs/DIMs/RINOs. nobama is the eternal-mocked and ridiculed president. What a limp putz! I bet even his children laugh at him & his weakness.
Impeach, Impeach, Impeach.
Well, its not like the blubbering cheeto and his cohorts in the gop “led” House are going to do anything to prevent it.
The absolute disgust, the total revulsion, the skin-crawling detestation of that pussy maggot traitor is simply beyond words.
Must be a “wag the dog” moment approaching.
