Newsclick discusses with senior political analyst Aijaz Ahmad the happenings in Syria, the US attempts to bomb Syria, the international responses to these developments and what could happen to the whole West Asian scenario. Aijaz Ahmad says that the US Congressional approval for bombing Syria could play either way – it might seem as if the US Congress is taking charge and preventing Obama from bombing Syria, or it may well be that the resolution may be approved, giving unlimited authority to Obama to go ahead.
