White House to discuss the possibility of attacking Syria

Barack Obama will listen to proposals on launching military scenarios against Russian and Syrian troops.

The red line

It has become known that one of the proposals provides for the US Air Force to launch strikes on Syrian military bases, ammunition depots, and radars. This is the most radical scenario, as it would inevitably entail a response from the Syrian and Russian military.

War - state of emergency - third term?

If a clash with Russian troops happens in Syria, then this could escalate into a direct conflict between Moscow and Washington. There is a high probability that this is what the US hawks and neoconservatives want. In such a case, Barack Obama can declare emergency law and the US elections could be canceled. This also plays into the hands of the neoliberals, as Donald Trump would not be able to occupy the White House and they will have a free hand for some time.
