This is not new...this is a few years old. Not sure why anyone would hurry except to make some obscure political points.

Actually the g20 is Thursday and Friday and then add travel..so why call everyone back
BBC News - Syria crisis: David Cameron supports Obama's stance

I believe that the Obama Adminstration should consider the consequences of a strike on Syria very carefully before taking any military action and should try to get as much consensus as possible in these actions. Cannot see how and why the Syrian regime could hide chemical weapons as there are probably quite a number of satellites and other intelligence gathering agents targeting Syria from many countries which have an interest in that region-- Russia, China, the United States, the UK, Canada, Australia, Brazil, Israel, Jordan, Egypt, Saudia Arabia, etc.
