My fellow Americans,
5 _# _$ e; T- `$ G. U" hOn Tuesday, Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad launched a horrible chemical weapons attack on innocent civilians using a deadly nerve agent.+ H+ k2 L u4 T" K- L/ M( b
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.1 t! t6 y1 `' \$ U* Q W
No child of god should ever suffer such horror.
1 I! d8 v% k; _' n6 Y8 b3 ITonight I ordered a targeted military strike on the airfield in Syria from where the chemical attack was launched.
; U, d* a6 a' J+ kIt is in this vital national security interest of the United States to prevent and deter the spread and use of deadly chemical weapons.' k9 y+ h5 i: D# D1 ?$ i+ L3 |
There 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.
+ G D- V! d2 {: _( BYears of previous attempts at changing Assad’s behaviour have all failed and failed very dramatically.
% n# K& L0 {5 q- y7 q# @" VAs a result the refugee crisis continues to deepen and the region continues to destabilise, threatening the United States and its allies.! T! h/ O' x3 N9 K! W, n1 C
Tonight I call on all civilised nations to join us in seeking to end the slaughter and bloodshed in Syria, and also to end terrorism of all kinds and all types.: \) k" a0 e& K; S) O
We ask for god’s wisdom as we face the challenge of our very troubled world.
2 i! U" ?6 Z; [8 M/ CWe pray for the lives of the wounded and for the souls of those who have passed.
5 S }! C5 i# A' B5 `( zAnd we hope that as long as America stands for justice that peace and harmony will in the end prevail.- ]& D" W* k; s$ q( E
Goodnight and god bless America and the entire world. Thank you.
