White House Presses Case On Syria On New Website



In an effort to persuade a skeptical American public on military intervention in Syria, the White House launched a new website on Thursday laying out the adminstration's case.

The site features text, photos and videos arranged in chronological order of what the adminsitration says is evidence that Bashar al-Assad's regime in Syria conducted a devastating chemical weapons attack last month.

TPM is tallying where members of Congress stand on the Syrian intervention vote here.

President Barack Obama visits the Yad Vashem Holocaust Museum in Jerusalem, March 22, 2013. Standing with the President, from left, are: Rabbi Yisrael Meir Lau; Israeli President Shimon Peres; Israeli Prime Minster Benjamin Netanyahu; and Avner Shalev, Chairman of the Yad Vashem Directorate

3. I am not convinced. It was awful, but we are cutting the rolls of meals on wheels and head start...

Let's use the do.lars it would take to spank Syria here at home helping our own most vulnerable. Let's use some of that money rebuilding crumbling infrastructure
