Syria, Russia, and Iran to provide alternative for war.
posted on Sep, 8 2013 @ 08:31 PM
This is good news. Russia, Iran, and Syria are writing up a counter proposal to provide a more diplomatic solution to a US attack. This may include Assad stepping down (not being involved in new elections), and an agreement to remove chemical weapons from Syria - sending them to Russia instead.
It appears even the opposition doesn't want the US to interfere. They would prefer Assad to be removed with Russia's assistance. That appears to be all they want, and it may be Assad will agree to this. Iran's fear is a need to stand by Syria if its attacked. They are asking to not be put into this position it seems. They believe Assad would step away. In fact, its my understamding he has agreed to do so.
If they are bringing this to the table it's far more than the US could hope for. No more Assad. No more chemical weapons. A few other weapons taken to Russia. Elections with a new president. We can't get all of that with a shot across the bow. What will Obama do with this one? Lets hope reason prevails.

While United States President Barack Obama and his Secretary of State John Kerry continue their never-ending efforts to convince the Congress and America's allies to support an attack on Syria, Iran and Russia are promoting a proposal for a diplomatic compromise that could prevent such an attack.
