Retired Army Gen. David H. Petraeus, former CIA director under President Barack Obama, called strongly Saturday for Congress to back the White House on Syria, declaring that military action against the regime is �necessary� to deter �Iran, North Korea and other would-be aggressors.�

�Failure of Congress to approve the president�s request would have serious ramifications not just in the Mideast but around the world,� Petraeus said in a four-sentence statement provided to POLITICO.

"If people can�t trust not only the executive branch but also don�t trust Congress, and don�t trust federal judges, to make sure that we�re abiding by the Constitution with due process and rule of law, then we�re going to have some problems here." - Barack Obama, June 7, 2013
