Hes going to speak directly to the American People about the potential for limited military action in syria. Hes going to do that at 9 00 tonight. As i said last night, its appropriate to allow other conversations to go on. We now have, as a result of some work done by other countries, france, russia, and we understand syria is involved in this, this is aimed at avoiding military action. Well have to see if this works out. Very important to understand that the only way russia is seeking to avoid military, the president obama has made it clear the its will act if we must. Our credible threat of force has made these diplomatic discussions with syria possible. And the United States should withdraw from the direction were taking as a country. If theres a realistic chance and i hope there is to secure syrias chemical weapons to avoid further atrocities of the assad regime, we should not turn our back. But the regime must quickly prove their offer is real, not a ploy to delay military action
