Do we really expect the Syrians to say 'Yes Sir, No Sir, Three bags full Sir' when it comes to handing over their chemicals?
I can't believe how gullible some folk are.
Here's the truth:
1. Our side have tired of war.
2. We've been utterly out-manoevered diplomatically (again).
3. It's none of our damn business anyway.
If Assad has anything to say it will be along the lines of:
'Fcuk off and don't annoy me. We have powerful friends too. And as for handing over anything to the US goes- stick it up your arse'.
Of course, that will be translated into diplomatic language before transmission.
Bottom line?
No strike. No weapon surrender. Assad will eventually defeat his opponents and it will be back to business as usual.
The so-called insurgents are no friends of ours either. The whole plot stinks to high heaven.
