On Tuesday, Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad launched a horrible chemical weapons attack on innocent civilians using a deadly nerve agent.
. G+ t6 `2 A+ M0 }( @Assad choked out the lives of innocent men, women and children. It was a slow and brutal death for so many. Even beautiful babies were cruelly murdered in this very barbaric attack.

Tonight I ordered a targeted military strike on the airfield in Syria from where the chemical attack was launched.
& R r& _7 A& P& v0 wIt is in this vital national security interest of the United States to prevent and deter the spread and use of deadly chemical weapons.
! d2 C$ e, Z7 p, _% h3 J) Q1 ZThere can be no dispute that Syria used banned chemical weapons, violated its obligations under the chemical weapons convention, and ignored the urging of the UN security council.
$ F9 z7 _* c' B0 m; v. [) r0 ZYears of previous attempts at changing Assad’s behaviour have all failed and failed very dramatically.
