====Obama's "red line"====

In 2012, during the [[Syrian Civil War]], President Obama stated that if the Syrian dictator, President [[Bashar al-Assad]] used [[chemical weapon]]s against Syrians, that would be unacceptable and cross a red line. However, after it was confirmed that Assad did use weapons against his people, Obama did practically nothing. He went to Congress to authorize a military strike, but this request was rejected (he had the ability to order a military strike without Congress's approval). Later, the Obama Administration (particularly [[Susan Rice]]) and the mainstream media claimed they had worked with Syria to remove its chemical weapons.<ref name="RiceTakesHeat">Chakraborty, Barnini (April 7, 2017).
