- Summary:
- The U.S. intelligence community has assessed with high confidence that Syrian government forces used sarin nerve gas in limited attacks earlier this year and conducted a mass casualty chemical weapons attack against rebel held areas near Damascus on 21 August 2013. In June 2013, the Obama Administration stated that reported chemical attacks would lead the United States to offer more material support to the opposition. This book examines the background issues and U.S. response options in the armed conflict in Syria; the humanitarian response; and includes remarks made by President Obama in an address to the Nation about Syria on 10 September 2013.
