"I believe the scenario is all about gold, tons of it, in the hands/control of Assad that other persons want."

Transfer of money to US is looking more and more like the issue and the rest is just smokescreen.

B. Hussein O. keeps talking about a limited excursion - a war of days. That might be all he has to do in order to get the $$$.
