The administration will undoubtedly take credit for this, but I don't believe for a minute it was their idea. As soon as Kerry made that "off the cuff" statement about Assad giving up his weapons he dismissed it as well as others in the state department.
I do believe Putin an Assad may have had this up their sleeve to embarrass the US and they are probably laughing their arses off every time they change their story or demands and we react. It's pathetic.
