But Have We Tried Bigger Pallets of Cash?

The chemical weapons deal with Syria has not actually prevented Syria from getting chemical weapons. So it is similar to the Iran nuclear deal.

Are you surprised?

The global chemical weapons watchdog criticized Syria for failing to declare a chemical weapons production facility and respond to 18 other issues, while Russia accused the watchdog of conducting a “political crusade” against its close ally, the Syrian government.

The deal was a farce that failed even on the farcical terms the Obama administration set for it. Lavrov probably couldn't believe his luck that he faced off against the clearly inept dandy Kerry.

As Biden prepares to restore the horrible Iran nuclear deal, will he also try to fix the Syria chemical weapons deal?

I just thank God Kerry is not returning to the State Department.

But hey, who knows what wonders pallets of cash delivered in the dead of night can achieve?
