Obama will indeed call off strikes if the syrians give up some chemical weapons. He never wanted to launch them anyway. This gives him a face saving out and messiah trumpets his role as a peacemaker yet a strong leader because he threatened the syrians and they gave their weapons - supposedly. Obama will play it up as a win tonight. Media will support him. Yada yada yada
