Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) on Monday said there are “dozens” of countries ready to support U.S. intervention in Syria -- she just can’t say who they are.
“There are dozens of countries who are going to stand with the United States, who will engage with us on military action and also that back us 100 percent,” Wasserman Schultz said during an interview on CNN.
Pressed for specifics, Wasserman Schultz said the information is "classified."
Asked whether the support would come in the form of military or diplomatic action, congresswoman said it would be a combination of the two
“The important thing is we need military and moral leadership here,” she said.
Wasserman Schultz also said she believes Congress will ultimately sign off on the president’s call to action in Syria.
“President Obama and, I think, the Congress will make a very strong signal that this conduct — murdering your own people mercilessly — is unacceptable,” she said.
