British Prime Minister David Cameron perhaps implied it saying:
"Now is the time to say to the Russians and Chinese, look at the man we are dealing with, look at the appalling way he is behaving. We need to go back to the UN and tighten the pressure, tighten the noose."
He stopped short of what he likely means. Perhaps not for long, nor from Obama administration officials.
A Final Comment
The blame game points fingers the wrong way. Today's lull resembles hurricane eye deception. Often following calm, more dangerous storm surges, winds, and tornadoes follow.
This one may head toward Category 5. With it comes significant damage and loss of life. Hurricanes do it through storm surges, wind velocity and flooding. America's wars feature shock and awe mass killing, devastation, colonization, resource theft, exploitation, and human misery.
Storms come and go. Imperial war effects are long-lasting. Syrians understand. So do Iranians and others throughout the region. When America shows up, trouble follows.
In response, they resist. Sovereignty is too precious to surrender to imperial control. They'll do what it takes to prevent it or contest what Washington imposes.
