The Kerry video will be streamed above during his remarks.

WASHINGTON—Secretary of State John Kerry will make a statement at 12:30 p.m. ET on the situation in Syria, the State Department said, as the U.S. prepares for unilateral military action to punish the regime of Bashar al-Assad for its alleged use of chemical weapons against civilians.

Mr. Kerry will make the statement from the State Department. His remarks follow an abrupt decision by the U.K. not to participate in any military action in Syria and amid calls from members of the U.S. Congress for more information about how the U.S. plans to respond.

Still trying to understand why Kerry did this? Does he think he can change minds at this late date?

Why isn’t Congress called back?

Basicly, he just said we must act ALONE, because the RUSSIANS have made the U.N. unworkable.

I guess the same holds true for NATO, our closest allies, up till 2009 anyway, of Britain, Germany and Canada, and the electorate who want Congress to approve this folly.

Many of us were worried what would happen if this SOB was reelected, now he feels he has nothing holding him back. Failure by a narcissist cannot happen and as he gets mocked all the more he piles on the failures. We should send him back to Kenya FOB, Failure on Board.

“I’ve NEVER seen DrO shut off the TV more quickly and do it swearing.”

Probably no faster than me. I went into our family room, where our 25 year old tv is. I turned on Fox, and there was Kerry blabbering. I turned it of as fast as I could with a mild curse.

My wife said, “That was fast. Was that Obozo?”

I told her no, it was Kerry.

She laughed and asked if Jane Fonda was with him and if he was in Cambodia. I said no to both ?’s.

As Kirk Douglas said in the movie, In Harms Way, get ready for a gut wrenching, mother-lovin’ war starting tonight!
We’ll shoot off all our Tomahawks and then declare we can’t afford to make new missiles because of Republican budget cuts!
We won’t have enough troops left to provide ‘backup’ to all the chaos in the Middle Eastern End-Times-Volcano!
We’ll solve the unemployment problem at home by starting up the draft for both men AND women to fight in the front lines.
We’ll end the gun-control controversy by forcing them to bring their own weapons.
Unfortunately, DHS has all the bullets.
The Constitution will be declared null and void as marshall law is declared.
All “PHONY Scandals” will dissolve and we will seek protection from The One and his minions . . .
Stand By for September 11 around the world! ! !
TWA 800, World Trade Centers, and all other ‘terrorist’ acts will pale before the upcoming chaos around the world.
ALL the bad guys will also take advantage of the fog of war and true enemies will be blurred.
Be Prepared as Hope and Change is leading directly to THE END!

Thanks for the information and you’re right to point out that Kerry is the sec of state, not defense.

This ego-saving proposed attack on Syria can’t be justified using our “national security interests,” no matter how the regime tries to spin it.

God bless and keep you and God please spare our military from the Marxist’s personal use.

The Radicals around Obama think they can grab “The Moral Highground!” on this.

Missing from Kerry’s speech: Any assessment that Syria poses any kind of threat to the United States.

Lets just drop in a few globenmasters full of Obama’s New Lesbian and Homo military and send those evil homophobes running for cover.
