Description

Shows United States President, Barack Obama, pointing to a line. Text reads, "The US has conclusive proof Assad used chemicals on his own people crossing the 'red line' set by Obama". Obama says, "Now that I've had a closer look, it's more of a mauve really" Refers to the ongoing civil war in Syria, and an announcement on 13 June 2013 by the United States that they had definitive proof that Bashar al-Assad used chemical weapons against rebel forces. However, despite having previously stated in 2012 that use of chemical weapons would be a red line and would change the US's approach to Syria, the US did not follow through with action.
