Is a military strike against the Assad regime in the offing or
not? Two weeks after reports emerged of an apparent chemical
weapons attack in the Damascus suburbs, the West's response is
still riddled with uncertainty and confusion. Stephen Sackur
speaks to the former French Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin.
His country stands ready to join an attack on the Syrian regime,
but with who? British parliamentarians voted against
intervention, now President Obama is putting his military case
before the US Congress. Is this the way to develop a coherent
strategy?
