It was unknown what the response from the United States would be, but today President Donald J. Trump made clear that he is blaming Russian President Vladimir Putin and the Iranian government for supporting "Animal Assad.".
Syrian state media denied government forces had launched any chemical attack and said rebels in the eastern Ghouta town of Douma were in a state of collapse and spreading false news.
Many dead, including women and children, in mindless CHEMICAL attack in Syria.
President Trump quickly followed that sentiment up by referring to President Obama's infamous "Red line" comments regarding Syria's use of chemical weapons.
President Obama promised to intervene in Syria if Assad used chemical weapons but when the time came, he failed to follow through on that promise.
One year earlier, President Barack Obama had described Assad's potential use of chemical weapons as "a red line" that would have "Enormous consequences" and "Change my calculus" on American military intervention in Syria's civil war.
On that subject, President Trump asserted Syria could have ended long ago if President Obama followed through with his promise.
