John Kerry’s remark on the international control of Syrian
chemical weapons might have been a blunder. But thanks to Lavrov, the Russian
Foreign Minister, the blunder has become a tiny window of opportunity. And in a
world that is tired of wars and abominates state-sponsored violence, as well as
all types of violent conflict, the blunder is now a powerful argument against
one-sided strikes.
History is so often built on blunders. And historical
blunders have led to so many disasters. Maybe this time we will have a positive
development coming out of a gaffe.
