Pentagon :President Barack Obama may proceed with military action against Syria even without allied support,sources said.The White House says President Obama will decide on a response to alleged chemical weapons use in Syria based on US interests.
But they stressed no final decision has been made on Americas response to the Syrian governments alleged chemical weapons attack, which is said to have killed 1,300 people.

Veto-holding members of the United Nations are at odds over a draft Security Council resolution that would authorise all necessary force in response to the alleged gas attack.

The UKs traditional role as Americas most reliable military ally was called into question when David Cameron became the first British prime minister in history to be blocked by MPs over the prospect of military action.

America is mulling whether to strike Syria without UN backing despite some of the more hawkish figures in the US cautioning against military action.
