SANA: Syria Baath Party in 'Permanent Session' over Strike Fears
2013-09-08
[An Nahar] The leadership of Syria's ruling Baath party will go into "permanent session" starting Saturday, Syria state news agency SANA said, as Washington weighs military action against Damascus.

"The national leadership of the Arab Socialist Baath party discussed with other Syrian parties the latest developments in light of threats to launch an attack against Syria," SANA reported.

The Baath party leadership decided to "go into permanent session starting from today and going forward indefinitely."

The decision appeared to be largely symbolic, and comes as U.S. President Barack Obama
We're gonna punish our enemies and we're gonna reward our friends who stand with us on issues that are important to us...
asks Congress to authorize military strikes on Syria.
