Syria hails 'historic American retreat' as Obama hesitates
All actions start somewhere . Thay are best controlled at the start . If you can block the though that leads to a Dishonest , you will block the deed itself . ( Norman Vircent Peale . )
One of the test of Leadership is the Ability to recoginze a problem
before it becomes an Emergency . ( Arnold H. Glasgow )
Why did the US President Barack Obama delay on Military Strike by deciding to consult congress ?
He did not know the injury that he has done and the one his Suffering are not weighed in the same Scale .
The Law-makers in the Congress of the US who stand for the Military Action will be punished by American People in the comming election surely .
The Congress of the US either stands for the Military Action or against which has no effect over the Responsibility because it is only upon the President of the US .
Mr. President ! Would you order the Force of the US to take the Military Action on Syria ? God bless with you ! The biggest game of the US President .
Secretary of State John Kerry has defended the president's abrupt change of approach, telling NBC: "He didn't think it was worthwhile acting and having the Syrians and a whole bunch of other folks looking at the United States arguing about whether or not it was legitimate, or should he have done it, or should he have moved faster."
But that is precisely what will happen for at least the next 10 days. There's lots of criticism already and a lot of rehashing of how he got to this position.
Only on Friday, the Secretary of State went out on a limb stressing what was at stake for the world and America's reputation. It is hard to imagine that he's best pleased that Assad's punishment has been put on hold.
If Congress votes "No", his words will come back to haunt him and Obama.
That could happen: victory is by no means assured, particularly in the Republican-controlled House of Representatives. Perhaps the Senate isn't safe either - this will be a free vote and there'll be no formal attempt by party leaders to persuade their colleagues.
After receiving a lengthy classified intelligence briefing on Capitol Hill, several senators and congressmen seemed unconvinced.
The draft resolution from the White House calls for authorisation for action to "deter, disrupt, prevent and degrade" Syria's ability to use chemical weapons: two senators - one Republican, one Democrat - called that too open-ended.
Republican Senator John McCain, who has been leading the demand for military intervention in Syria, said that there was "no strategy, no plan" - and both were needed before he'd back the motion.
If Congress doesn't back him, it will be disastrous for the president.
His decision to call for a vote will look foolish and he would be left with an appalling choice.
Ignore the vote and enrage Congress and many Americans. Or don't strike and live with John Kerry's words that America will be weakened, petty dictators emboldened and history's judgement harsh on America's leaders.
So everything hangs on Obama winning the vote. But even if he does, the delay gives Assad more time to prepare for the blow.
The decision has left many commentators questioning his leadership and asking how Obama managed to box himself in.
But to have taken action without the UN, without the UK, without Congress and without the American people's support would have been very uncomfortable for a man who came to office vowing to end America's foreign wars.

President Obama has taken the biggest gamble of his presidency.
His decision to put off an attack on Syria and seek authorisation from Congress apparently stunned some of his closest advisers.
