Does anyone think this will make any difference? and then the strangest twist, an unplanned last-minute appeal to congress, paving the way for further delay, weakening momentum, erasing what little surprise existed, and setting the stage for a potential defeat at home. i don t think that this strike, should it eventually take place, will be as damaging as critics fear. the assad regime will likely hunker down, take it and move on. it will make little difference one way or the other. but the manner in which the obama administration has first created and then mismanaged this crisis will cast a long shadow on america s role in the world. that s my view. let s get started. we are live in istanbul, turkey, a country that shares a ....
