Congress returns to work tomorrow after its summer break, and lawmakers will be faced with the pivotal decision of whether to launch military strikes against Syria after its alleged use of chemical weapons. Democratic Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez told NBC's Meet the Press that she doesn't see the use of chemical weapons as a threat to US national security that justifies military strikes.
明天国会将结束夏季休假，恢复工作，议员将要做出关键决策，在叙利亚被控使用化学武器后是否对其发动军事打击。民主党国会女议员洛雷塔·桑切斯做客MBC电视台的《与媒体见面》时表示，她不认为使用化学武器对美国国家安全构成威胁，这不足以成为发动军事打击的理由。
"It isn't about national security, and I haven't heard any of our interests. I haven't heard that Assad wants to use the weapons against us. I haven't heard that he wants to use the weapons against our allies, that he is moving them to terrorist organizations."
“这与国家安全无关，我没有听到有与我们利益相关的事情。我没有听说阿萨德要用化学武器袭击我们。我没有听说他想用化学武器袭击我们的同盟，也没有听说他想帮助恐怖组织。”

Syrian President Bashar Assad says there is no conclusive evidence about who's to blame for chemical weapons attacks in Syria. Television journalist Charlie Rose recently interviewed Assad. Rose says the Syrian president thinks it would be a mistake for the US to go through with the threatened military strikes against the country.
叙利亚总统巴沙尔·阿萨德表示，目前并没有确凿的证据表明谁应该为叙利亚发生的化学武器袭击事件负责。电视记者查理·罗斯近日采访了阿萨德。罗斯表示，叙利亚总统认为美国坚持进行威胁军事打击叙利亚的决定是个错误。
"He had a message to the American people that it had not been a good experience for them to get involved in the Middle East in wars and conflicts in the Middle East, that the result had not been good, and that they should not get involved, and that they should communicate to their Congress and to their leadership in Washington not to authorize a strike."
“他曾对美国人民说，涉及中东战争和冲突是不好的经历，结果不会是好的，他们不应该参战，他们应该和国会及华盛顿领导层沟通，不授权动武。”

Investors have a lot to worry about this month--Congress in particular. Lawmakers need to pass a spending bill to avoid a government shutdown. Then there is the US hitting its borrowing limit next month. If Congress doesn't raise the limit, the US could default on its debt. Lawrence Creatura, portfolio manager for Federated Investors, says the Syrian conflict is a wild card.

"Investors in general just hate uncertainty, and nobody knows exactly what is going to happen, making it more difficult for investors to price assets."
“一般来说，投资者都讨厌不确定性，没有人确切知道会发生什么，这使投资者很难制定资产价格。”
