does anyone really believe that the potus wants to take any kind of military action in this issue? he realizes he shot his mouth off and put his back to the wall; and a congressional thumbs down gets him off the hook. this delay of waiting for congress to return from vacation is all the delay he needs to a] come up with another crisis or scandal on which to refocus the general public and b] campaign with members of the senate and congress to vote no when they return to vote.

this is a humanitarian issue - not a threat to the u.s. of a. let the potus rally the u.n. to take over and address refugee issues for the syrians in another country.
