So says former U.S. ambassador and State Department negotiator
WND
UNITED NATIONS – Former U.S./U.N. Ambassador and State Department negotiator John Bolton tells WND he expects the White House to launch its attack on Syria this weekend.
Bolton went on to suggest that such an attack could come late Saturday night or early Sunday morning.
“It simply scheduling,” Bolton told WND.
The ambassador was pointing to Obama’s plans to travel to Europe and Russia for the upcoming G20 Summit to be held in St. Petersburg in early September.
Meanwhile in New York, U.N. chief Ban Ki-Moon received his first personal briefing on the Syrian crisis from his disarmament chief Angela Kane, who had just returned from meeting Syrian government officials in Damascus.
Inside sources tell WND that Kane explained to Ban that Syria did in fact use chemical weapons but that a firm conclusion would await the assessment of the U.N. chemical weapons inspection team, which just left Syria on Saturday.
