Against the Syrian Regime. President obama has asked congress for its support in this action because in a democracy, our policies are stronger, more effective, and more sustainable when they have the soup port of the American People the support of the American People. Tomorrow evening, the president will address the nation and make his case for taking action. Today tom i want to take this opportunity to explain why serious use of chemical weapons is a serious threat to our National Security. And why it is in our National Interest to undertake limited military action to deter future use. There is no denying what happened on august 21. Around 2 30 a. M. , while most of damascus was still asleep, assads forces loaded warheads with deadly chemicals onto rockets and launched them into suburbs controlled or contested by opposition forces. They unleashed hellish chaos and terror on a massive scale. Innocent civilians were jolted awake, choking on poison. Some never woke up at all. In the end,
