hour. we want to warn you that some of the images here could be a little tough to look at. nbc news receiving this video. the white house says it conclusively shows evidence of the august 21st chemical attack on syrian civilians. this is what white house officials have been showing members of the senate intelligence committee in those closed-door briefings on capitol hill. this video just being released from the white house where administration officials are releasing this video. more video, they say, that conclusively shows more evidence of the august 21st chemical attack. let s get right to the braintrust. let s start with that video. do images like that are seeing more images like that in any way, shape or form going to change the dynamic right now? you ve seen the polls,e esther and bob.
own judgment. so after 12 years, there is understandable skepticism and people are tired of politicians being away from their actual politics. and politicians lead from behind. i don t think you ll see any number of them defying the poll in their constituents and voting against what they ve heard in the people who vote for them. and lastly, the people are fed up of politicians using emotionality for the case for war. and they re asking for reason and informing and evidence. i will say this is one of the few issues in recent history that has created some very strange political bedfellows. this table, notwithstanding. this is very strange to hear so many people from so many different stripes, nodding in agreement. thank you, bob, for being here. esther, commentator, playwright. bob franken, syndicated
