Suspicion of Chemical Weapons in Syria
On April 25, 2013, David Cloud of the Los Angeles Times wrote an article called "White House Suspects Syria Used Chemical Weapons, Seeks Inquiry". The article discusses how the White House has a suspicion that the Syrian government is using chemical weapons. This, of course, is against international law, and it can not be done. But, during the time of war, Syria has seen it necessary to use. The White House is searching for clues and answers to see if there was such a use of weapons in Syria, and if there was and they have well enough proof to prove it, then they will take action. The chemical mainly being seen in Syria is sarin. Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel has made it obvious that he wants some steps to be taken for Syria. The United States is using what proof it has so far to push something to change in the United Nations. If the United States can get the United Nations to act, then it will be able to work much more easily and drive the actions down the road they want to go. If the United States intervenes into Syria, its the last of the Assad government as we know it.
