America and
its allies respond in Syria
Devastating
images from Syria reveal the unique and gruesome danger of
chemical weapons. Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s
April 7 attack on innocent civilians violated international
law, the Chemical Weapons Convention, and several United
Nations Security Council Resolutions. He must be held
accountable.
On Friday, the
United States and its allies responded. President
Trump ordered U.S. Armed Forces to launch precision strikes on
targets associated with Syrian chemical weapons capabilities.
He thanked Britain and France for joining America in the
operation, using their “righteous power against barbarism and
brutality.”
The strikes were
legitimate, proportionate, and justified. Most
important, they were necessary. Even small amounts of chemical
weapons can unleash widespread destruction. To prevent their
spread, everyone must understand that the costs of using
chemical weapons will always outweigh any military or political
benefits.
