Cloud Over U.S. Plan for Syria

Cameron and Obama
About 160 United States law makers have expressed opposition to the country's planned intervention in Syria without Congress approval. This is contained in an online report by the Los Angeles Times report that law makers have signed letters demanding a vote in the Congress over plans to intervene in Syria's fratricide.
According to the report, Rep. NancyPelosi (D-San Francisco) and minority leader, said that Americans are weary of war ; in agreement with Speaker John Boehner, she said that there should be more consultations with Congress, transparency from the administration and that the case for war needs to be made to the American people.
Coming the same day that the British House of Commons voted against military intervention in Syria, disapproving David Cameron's decision to commit Britain on a military expedition to Syria and the prime minister's deference to the will of the people, people say that "We The People" doctrine trumped the prime minster's decision and that the same should happen in the U.S, the world's most popular democracy.
There is no single person on New York streets the Global Pentorch interview who approves the U.S. to intervene militarily in Syria. The vote against the war by the British House of Commons has further made people to point to the bipartisan opposition from the Congress, as just like the case in Britain's bipartisan disapproval.
People want convincing evidence beyond rhetoric that Bashir al-Assad's side in the war deployed the chemical weapons. They said that it was manifest that chemical weapons was used, but the UN's fact finding team ought to be allowed to complete its work and submit its report. The same request is being made by members of the U.S. Congress, most of who said they are not convinced by what they have been shown, and that they said it would have been welcomed if President Barack Obama had appeared in the briefing than delegating officials.
It is believed by observers that Cameron's decision to seek the House of Commons approval may further encourage the Congress in the U.S. to demand a vote before President Obama could commit the country to military intervention of any form in Syria. Americans learning late on Thursday that British MPs have voted against intervention in Syria fuels further objection to America's planned intervention and Obama's administration's likely decision to go ahead without Britain
John Kerry has told the world over 1000 Syrians were killed, beginning of another argument over the number of people that died from the deployment of the chemical weapons. It has been put at 1300 and later 300, and now Kerry says it is 1400 plus. This is part of an argument that the planned intervention is to warn against Assad regime against further use of chemical weapons and the intervention is not targeted against regime change.
A pall of confusion has been created and the president will have a lot of explanation to make about the morality behind planned Syrian intervention.
