Obama wins Senate panel backing on Syria strike
The Senate Foreign Relations Committee backed Obama’s Syria strike plan 10 to 7, adding a pledge to shift military balance and bar ground combat. The vote comes as debates mount with Rand Paul threatening a filibuster and timing uncertain for a Senate floor vote. The White House says action would be narrowly tailored to deter chemical weapons, with Kerry predicting a national address soon.
