The State Dept. revolution will not be televised

Secretary of State John Kerry met with about 10 senior department officials who disagree with the Obama administration’s plan in Syria, but a spokesman for the department said there would be no readout of Kerry’s talk with the dissenters.

A total of 51 diplomats have signed onto a “dissent channel” cable that was made public last week, and which says U.S. policy in Syria is not working. It calls for sustained airstrikes against the Syrian government, which State has openly admitted continues to ignore a fragile cease-fire there.
