let’s see...

have the rebels fire chem weapons at israel?

have the rebels fire chem weapons at russia?

never report that the deal was actually offered, then start bombing saying ‘we never got that in writing’?

claim the whole thing was 0’s idea?

worst case: just set something off here, then blame Syria.

I can promise you, the scribes are scrambling around the offices as we speak.

P.S. Watching U.S. News wires. seeing nothing on this yet.

Russia seized the diplomatic initiative Monday with a plan for Syria to head off the threat of US military strikes by putting its chemical weapons under international control.

The move by Moscow, Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad’s most powerful international ally, threatened to overshadow US President Barack Obama’s push to win support for punitive action.

follow up...

... since they really really REALLY want to go to war, my guess is that they’ll move the goal posts - again.

Not likely.

Posts #53 & 67.

“Syria publicly welcomed the idea, but a senior White House official told NBC News that it was no more than a delay tactic.”

“Russia seized the diplomatic initiative Monday with a plan for Syria to head off the threat of US military strikes by putting its chemical weapons under international control.

The move by Moscow, Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad’s most powerful international ally, threatened to overshadow US President Barack Obama’s push to win support for punitive action.”
