Giving this time to play out. when do you think you ll see action in the senate, on this new resolution, laying out the benchmarks? we re days from that. we re still working on the language, not only members but our staffs are. i think it would take some time. i would hope by the end of the week we d have a consensus, if not on the particulars of the language, at least the outline of it. senator, let s take a step back. when you look at this and how this has played out, what have you heard to this point that gives you even a modicum of confidence that russia and syria will follow through with their word, will stand by their word here? i was very skeptical when this was proposed. i was, in fact, very negative, because of the lack of credibility on the part of the russians and the syrian regime when it comes to the issue of chemical weapons. however, in the more than 24 hours now since we ve been examining this, there seems to be some potential. but let s not kid ourselves. the cha ....

Shouldn t be hypothesizing what might happen if it fails, but to make sure it works. and that means that secretary kerry and minister lavrov need to have their conversation over the next several days. the u.n. inspectors will present their report to congress at some point next week. those are two benchmarks that we should look at. and then we should assess where we are and move forward. congressman steve israel. thank you so much, sir. thank you. we ll be right back. every now and then i get a little bit hungry and there s nothing good around turn around barry i finally found the right snack constipated? yeah. mm. some laxatives like dulcolax can cause cramps. but phillips caplets don t. they have magnesium. for effective relief of occasional constipation. thanks.

Authorization and also the case for these diplomatic efforts. did that complicate the message, what was riding on his speech last night and kind of where things go from here? it did make it hard. again, when a president has a white house address to discuss possible military action, nine out of ten times, 9 1/2 out of 10 times, the president is making the case to the american people we are about to do this. the president last night was making the case, i hope i don t have to do this, i hope the diplomacy works but i need to walk you down the path, answer your questions. the president listed a lot of those questions. almost point by point. a lot of you say that. if you look after look, he has to move the numbers with the american people, move the numbers in the united states congress. democrats were generally positive about the speech, members of congress, but you did not see a rush of yes votes come out among republicans. lindsey graham, who s with the president on this said he ....

Like. i m curious how he addresses the tone and skepticism. well, he has to sort of deal with it head on. he has to make it very clear what we would want from the security council, what kind of benchmarks, what kind of timetable, what kind of verification we would want. americans recall searching for weapons of mass destruction in iraq, and nobody wants to go through that all over again. there are lots of questions about how we could verify where their weapons are, whether they ve been moving them around, whether the satellite images are, in fact, accurate now given the fact they ve had so much time to move things around. so the president has to lay out a plan for the american people. he has to say, give peace a chance. let diplomacy work, but back it up by force because that s the only reason we got to this point in time. you know something, julian, i had thought about with a producer of mine was had the ....

For diplomacy. the only reason that the russians and the syrians are even thinking about coming to the table or letting inspectors in to syria is because of the threat of use of american force. so what he s got to say, the threat got us to this point, i m skeptical about whether they really will cooperate. but we have to make the threat real. so he s got to continue to ask for the authorization of the use of force, but at the same time, he s got to the portray it as a diplomatic initiative and as kind of a last resort, which by the way, reminds me of iraq which is which was a vote to authorize the use of force, not the vote to use force. and iraq, they gave saddam hussein a lot of canness. they did. in the end to let the inspectors do what they wanted to do. that s why the administration says you know, and john mccain says we want a timetable. we want benchmarks. we re not going to go through that all over again. but as nick burns was saying to ....
