regime with assad? where does diplomacy? >> i'm not going to ahead on any options the president may take. dave? >> at the cabinet meeting the president was talking about the potential any impact on american farmers for the chinese tariffs. he said we'll make it up to them. what did he mean? >> the president has worked with his team to determine how best to respond to china's attack on american farmers. he's asked the department of agriculture to protect our farmers and will present a plan on specifics of that shortly. >> would you consider like extra crop insurance subsidies that are often put in the farm bill for market fluctuations? >> i'm not going to get ahead of potential options. the president has asked the department of agriculture to come back with specifics that

we'll announce shortly. >> first on syria. talked about the idea of some possible military option being a deterrent. last year the president called the chemical attack a disgrace to humanity. >> we're worried about the outrageous action against civilians. our focus is on that. that's what we're looking at. >> last we're we didn't get a chance to answer this. your comments citing the l.a. times article when asked about the president's rape marks at that event last week that didn't back up the president's claim. you admonished us to be held to a same high standard of accuracy. does the president also have to be held to that same extent?

>> absolutely. the numbers going back to 2014 where there were multiple articles and studies that put out that said 80% of the women that make that -- that go through that process and enter the country are raped. that's certainly something that the president has voiced concern about. >> what about the voter claims? also not backed up -- >> can you be specific? >> the president talked about voter claims. just the idea when words matter particularly in moments of international pressure like this moment right now. what is his standard of accuracy to the american public? >> the president feels strongly there was a large amount of voter fraud and attempted to do a thorough review of it. a lot of the states didn't want to cooperate and participate. we know there were a large number of incidences reported

but we can't be sure how much because we weren't able to conduct the full review because a number of states didn't want to cooperate and refused to participate. >> how long is the review going to take that the white house is conducting? >> i'm not going to lay out an arbitrary time line. it's something that we're looking into and continuing take under consideration. >> years? >> obviously we want to get through this process as quickly as we can. i'm not just going to make up a time frame here today. >> the chief of staff john kelly recommend that pruitt be fired? >> i'm not going to get into any conversations. blake, welcome back. >> i want to ask you about mark zuckerberg heading to the hill to testify. this administration has talked about deregulation and deregulatory efforts. there's a question whether or

not facebook should be regulated. does the white house have a stance on whether or not facebook should be regulated? >> we don't have a specific policy announcement on that front. we're looking forward to that testimony. >> what does the president make of mark zuckerberg? larry kudlow was critical of him on "fox news sunday" yesterday and when i asked him about zuckerberg this morning. does the president have any sort of opinion on mark zuckerberg? >> i haven't asked him directly. i'd have to check. one last question, jim. >> is there anything that the syrians can do to prevent military action from being taken? >> i'm not going to get ahead of what actions we may or may not take. so i can't really answer that question. but we'll keep you posted when we have something on that front. >> if i can follow up. just because you've been saying this the last couple weeks that nobody has been tougher on russia and vladimir putin than this president. isn't there some hyperbole in

that? john kennedy put up a blockade around cuba. carter boycotted the 1980 summer olympics in moscow. there's been presidents over the course of the last several decades that have been tough on this president. and this president recently wasn't willing to criticize putin by name. >> you cited one example for each individuals. let's talk about a few actions that the president has taken. the treasury department issued sanctions on individuals an entities in russia. the president continued other sanctions on the cyber activity in response to election hacking. he's expelled 60 operatives and closed two consulates. the president has talked about russian's poisoning about u.k.

citizens. he's authorized military strikes against the assad regime in syria and repeatedly called out russia's actions on that front. we also experted energy to our allies in eastern europe. you named off one or two things. it's without dispute that this administration and this president has done a number of things to be tough on russia and -- >> the president said that vladimir putin may pay a price for what's happening in syria. the russians are supposed to be responsible for helping remove the chemical weapons from syria. the president says they may pay a price, should we take that to the bank? >> i'm not going to get ahead on actions that the united states may or may not take. the president has been clear about his intentions. thanks very much. >> shepard: wrapping up the news briefing. the president has made it clear it won't be tolerated. the question which what might action in syria, if it happens, look like this time?

remember last time we had unfathomable atrocious video coming out of syria of literally of video of children dying from a chemical attack. and then there were tomahawk missiles over the area that they were launched. there was no change. now the best evidence that it's happened again. so what does the united states do now? does the united states have allies on board with the united states? when and in what met? i'm shepard smith on the fox news deck. a big news day. the president saying a heinous gas attack in syria and said he will make major decisions on how the united states will respond in the next day or two. >> it was an atrocious a tack. it was horrible. you don't see things like that as bad as the news is around the world, you just don't see those images. question are studying that

situation extremely closely. we are meeting with our military and everybody else. and we'll be making some major decisions the next 24 to 48 hours. we are very concerned. when that thing like that can happen, this is about humanity. we're talking about humanity. it can't be allowed to happen. >> shepard: can't be allowed to happen. similar tone from the president that was just before the last time there was some action. what might it look like this time? president went on to say all options are on the stable. standard fare ahead of his meeting with military leaders tonight. this comes ahead of the president saying he wanted troops out of syria soon. the white house said that the united states is committed to wiping out isis fighters that are still there before we pull out. he still says soon. over the weekend, opposition

activists said the serious forces said the government unleashed a poisonous attack on their own people. this is not fox news video. activists released this video showed people hosing down each other with water. you can see young children use inhalers to help them breathe. dozens tied including women and children and hundreds more were injured. i wish we could verify this. we cannot. we offer it up to you with the greatest understanding that we have. first responders say they found entire families suffocating in their homes and shelters. the syrian civil defense white helmets, a volunteer organization released these i'm my knowledges that will not show you some of them of lifeless bodies on the ground, some still foaming at the mouth. they're horrifying. the attack happened in a rebel held town. the rebels that the u.s. and others support and then there's

the government informations. this is an eastern suburb of damascus. the syrian government and the russians deny any involvement. this is the united states versus syria, iran and russia. russia and iran are allies with al-assad. the president called out putin in a tweet using his name for the first time in like 140 days. the quote "animal assad" as the president put it. he warned of a big price to pay for the attack. so this most recent chemical assault comes a year after president trump ordered dozens of missile strikes on a syrian base, 59 tomahawks in retaliation for another gas attack on civilians. russian and syrian military officials say israeli war planes launched an attack this morning.

you can see it north and east of where this weekend's attack happened. this israeli strike killed 14 and including three iranians. let's get a live look. this is the united nations. our live camera is in there. an emergency meeting is underway. we'll have an update as it happens. things are fluid. we have team fox coverage. we have jennifer griffin at the pentagon. john roberts is at the white house. nothing decisive or definitive but feels like there's something coming. >> about a year ago, there were rumblings that there may be some strike and then we saw the 59 tomahawk missiles launched from the base last year. so it's possible that something similar to that is on a hot boil in the front burner here at the white house and over at the pentagon. the white house pushing back against a notion floated by john mccain that the president talking in the last couple weeks

about bringing u.s. forces somehow emboldened bashar al-assad to take this latest attack. russia continues to insist that there was no evidence that chemical weapons were used in this attack. but the president this morning in his cabinet meeting together with members of his cabinet quite firm in saying that this was an attack used banned chemical weapons, a short time ago i asked sarah sanders why the president is confident about that claim. >> russia insists there's no chemical weapons. what makes the president so sure that he can make a declarative statement? >> the president is confident. he's been briefed by his national security team and kept up to date constantly and regularly on the intelligence around that. >> do we have any proof that it was a chemical weapon? >> once again, i can't get

anything beyond the comments that were made but we're very confident in those comments. >> in that cabinet meeting the president making the point that in syria didn't do anything wrong, why aren't they letting international observers in? listen here. >> it's very hard to get people in. not only has it been hit, it's been surrounded. if they're nnlt, why aren't they allowing people people to go in and prove in they're claiming they didn't make the attack. so if it's russia, if it's syria, if it's iran, if it's all of them together, we'll figure it out. and we'll know the answers soon. >> the president pointing fingers at vladimir putin as you pointed out at the top, shep, saying everybody will pay a price here, everybody involved in this. the president also pointing fingers at the obama administration for what happened tweeting "if president obama had

crossed his stated red line, this would have ended long ago. animal assad would have been different. that is different about what the president tweeted about five years ago. he said the only reason why he wanted to save face is over his dumb lired line. we should point out that this is john bolton's day here as the national security adviser. he in the past has warned against military action in syria saying it doesn't benefit the united states. so an open question as to where we'll go. we can probably use last year as a model for what lies ahead. >> shepard: thank you. the president meeting with leaders tonight on the military front. right now at the united nations a live emergency session is underway. we'll have reporting on that. miking oh happen lin from the brookings institute. will your allies be there?

is it something more than missiles? if so, what? more coverage on on fox news channel.

>> shepard: back to the suspected chemical attack in syria and the possible united states response. president trump says he will make a decision sometime in the next 24 to 48 hours and nothing is off the table. let's continue with jennifer griffin at the pentagon. what else are we hearing, jen? >> shep, the pentagon has been

working since yesterday to draw up options for the president. defense secretary mattis and the president have placed some responsibility on vladimir putin for the apparent gas attack. mattis spoke with the emir this morning and placed it on putin. >> the first thing we have to look at, why are chemical weapons still being used at all when russia is the frame work guarantor of removing the chemical weapons. so with our allies, we're going to address this issue. >> can you rule out launching air strikes against assad? >> i don't rule out anything right now. >> right now the u.s. has no aircraft carriers in the mediterranean or the persian

gulf but a navy guided missile destroyer with dozens of tomahawks left cypress this morning putting it within striking range of syria. >> shepard: i mentioned there was a round of air strikes overnight. who do we know about it? >> the syrians blamed the u.s. but the pentagon denied involvement. the russians later blamed israeli fighter pilots that launched the strike from lebanese airspace. the explosions occurred in central syria at the t-4 air base. it's a little hard to see. the base is used by the russians and the iranians. at least three iranians were killed in the strike, including the senior iranian revolutionary guard commander in charge of i ran's drone program in syria. that according to a statement from tehran. this is the same base from which iran launched a drone over israel in february. israeli jets bombeled the base in february. the f-16 was shot down by syrian

air defenses on route home. the israeli pilot made it back to israel. the first time in decades an israeli jet was shot down. >> shepard: coming up, what our next guest calls the complicated politics that president trump now faces. how this weekend's suspected chemical weapons attack -- and i say suspected because we can't verify it, but this suspected attack could throw a wrench in the president's plan to bring u.s. troops home. michael o'hanlan from the brookings institute is with us. cold... warmer... warmer... ah boiling. jackpot. and if you've got cut-rate car insurance, you could be picking up these charges yourself. so get allstate, where agents help keep you protected from mayhem...

...like me. mayhem is everywhere. are you in good hands? you might or joints.hing for your heart... but do you take something for your brain. with an ingredient originally found in jellyfish, prevagen is the number one selling brain-health supplement in drug stores nationwide. prevagen. the name to remember. there areand the best.s... we like cage free, and which ones are more flavorful? only eggland's best. we prefer organic, and which have more vitamins and less saturated fat? only eggland's best. better taste, better nutrition, better eggs.

>> shepard: lawmakers, some on both sides of the aisle, are demanding action after the apparent chemical attack on civilians in syria. that includes john mccain in

arizona. he's calling for president trump to respond last year when he ordered missile strikes on a syrian air base. senator mccain said president trump emboldened syrian dictator assad when he said that the u.s. troops would leave soon. the top democrat nancy pelosi said "the trump administration must provide a smart, strong and consistent strategy in syria." peter doocy worked capitol hill for us and there live now. peter? >> shep, republican lawmakers now want president trump to look carefully at what president obama did when assad took similar actions during his administration. but not for the reasons you think. >> the world is watching the president. iran is watching the president. russia is watching the president and north korea is watching the president. this president has a chance to do exactly the opposite of obama. sent a strong signal.

there's a new sheriff in town and america is back. >> but there are some republican critics like senator mccain that think that president trump's announcement that he wanted to get out of syria as fast as possible maybe emboldening the assad regime and the white house pushed back firmly on senator mccain and others. >> the only individuals that played a part don't reside in this country. we made clear who we think is responsible for these attacks. and to try to conflate that and make this on any part and blame on this president is absolutely ridiculous. >> this morning president trump said there could be some kind of a decision about action in syria in the next 24 to 48 hours. ever since then, lawmakers have been paying close attention. >> shepard: what are you hearing about democratic lawmakers on this? >> they don't think it worked when he bombed an empty air

field last year. we have bob menendez that said that assad is proof that a limited use of military force in syria without a broad and fully resourced diplomatic strategy as president trump chose to do in april of 2017 was ineffective. the democratic whip adds that my heart breaks for the people of syria and the victims of this attack. as we've seen today and countless times before, assad's rulety with putin's support knows know bounds. his continued use of chemical weapons is a stain on humanity itself. if there's a large scale military response, congress wants to be consulted. we have no reason to think that's coming, not right now, shep. >> shepard: thanks, peter doocy. let's go to jeff mason, white house correspondent for reuters. >> hi, shep. >> shepard: is there anyone's requirement that the president consult with congress prior to

taking any action? >> a good question. i think peter outlined that pretty well saying that congress would like to be consulted. if he were to declare war and nobody saying that that is what the president is considering, that they would require consultation. targeted military strikes would probably require less. clearly people on both sides of pennsylvania avenue are eager to know what will happen. in some cases to take some action. >> shepard: is there any -- i've seen the video. i understand. is there anything concrete on what this attack was? the white house is not giving any confirmation. we have not heard it from our own sources. i wonder if you know anything. >> i don't have more light to shed on that it's interesting that the white house is saying how confident they are. certainly the president expressed that confidence and sarah sanders did as well. they're not being more specific about what is leading to that

confidence. certainly the intelligence gathering community and the intelligence coming from them must be informing the president and the white house in order for them to make that statement. >> shepard: with yellow cake in niger as my guide, are there dissenting voices for clarity? >> we haven't heard any here. this is very new. you have dissenting voices in the form of russia saying that the evidence of a chemical attack is not present. but you know, for a president, in this case president trump, who is reluctant to criticize president putin, the fact that he was not reluctant at all in his tweet over the weekend and then today in the cabinet room suggests that he's confident about the intelligence he's received. >> shepard: michael o'hanlon on this matter in a moment. first, the tariffs with china. the market thinks it's not a big deal today. do we have any reporting on what

the president meant when he said if soy beam farmers in iowa and other plays are hurt because of this, they're patriots and we'll make it up to them. did that mean something? >> seems like i'd did it, yes. what details are yet to be determined. clearly the president is aware that farmers are hurting from this. he mentioned he thought it was not nice that china had specifically targeted farmers in an effort to target him. so it's something that they're discussing behind the scenes and will release a plan shortly. what that will be is not yet clear. it's interesting that he's reaching out now to farmers because it shows that he's concerned about the political fall-out from this policy. >> shepard: and large amounts of voter fraud. they're still with this line and fox news has nothing, no evidence of any kind to support the claims that there's voter fraud anywhere in the nation. it's a talking point that in the

absence of facts that will not disappear. >> it's a talking point that the president has used repeatedly and an absence of fact. >> shepard: okay. good to talk to you. jeff mason from reuters. >> you too, shep. >> shepard: the united nations is in emergency session about syria. think about it. 500,000 or more people that have been killed in a civil war that has developed into a proxy war with the united states against the syrian government, the russians and the iranians. now a video and it's condemning and horrible. but is it confirmed? no. niece about to lead to something we're led to believe. maybe we'll get more from the nighted nations on this. why president trump deserved credit for success in syria but warns withdrawing our troops now would bring nothing but trouble. it's the bottom of the hour, mid commercial headlines are next and we'll start with michael

o'hanlon. stay with us. od with me when this guy got a flat tire in the middle of the night. hold on dad... liberty did what? yeah, liberty mutual 24-hour roadside assistance helped him to fix his flat so he could get home safely. my dad says our insurance doesn't have that. don't worry - i know what a lug wrench is, dad. is this a lug wrench? maybe? you can leave worry behind when liberty stands with you™. liberty stands with you™. liberty mutual insurance. and back pain made it hard to sleep and get up on time. then i found aleve pm. the only one to combine a safe sleep aid... ...plus the 12 hour pain relieving strength of aleve. i'm back. aleve pm for a better am. not having a good breakfast can make you feel like your day never started. get going with carnation breakfast essentials®. it has protein, plus 21 vitamins and minerals including calcium and vitamin d, to help your family be their best.

>> shepard: breaking news out of the united nations. the u.n. security council is holding a meeting on the suspected chemical attack in syria. the u.s. says that russia has prepared their own resolution calling for an independent investigation into chemical weapons. david lee miller is at the united nations for us. david lee? >> it's at this hour, emergency meetings underway. the russian ambassador to the united nations has been speaking. he's said there's no justification for the u.k., the u.s. and france to institute what he described as confrontational policies in syria. background here, russia so far has vetoed 11 different

resolutions dealing with the syrian conflict. five of those resolutions dealing with chemical weapons. we expect that russia will try to introduce their own resolution as you mentioned. unlikely the u.s. will support that resolution because it's expected to give considerable control to syria regarding the inspection of alleged chemical weapons sites. as for the u.s., we do expect the u.s. to introduce their own resolution. that resolution will likely condemn the u.s. chemical weapons in syria and call for the implementation of a partial mechanism to investigate chemical weapons attacks. late last year, you might recall that u.n. mechanism expired and russia vetoed efforts to try to renew it. lastly just moments against before this meeting got underway, we heard from the u.k. ambassador to the united nations. she was asked about the

possibility that the u.s. and its allies might take part in some type of military strike. listen to what she had to say. >> no decisions have been taken but all options are on the table. as the prime minister said, we need an urgent investigation. if the assad regime is proved to be responsible as many of us fear, there will be need to be accountability. >> the bottom line here today, it's highly unlikely there will be any action taken from the united nations underscoring that russia and the united states each called for their own meetings on what is happening in syria. the only thing greed upon today is that one meeting would take place. the russian ambassador at this hour continues to speak. >> shepard: thanks. turning to michael o'hanlon from the brookings institute. michael specializes in u.s. defense strategy and just wrote a column "how do we prevent isis

2.0. withdrawing from syria is not the answer." to begin with, thank you. when we did this a year ago, 59 tomahawks, did that have any effect on the conflict? >> no, it did not in any way that i can detect in second and third order details that are hard to measure. probably did eliminate 15 to 20% of the syrian air force. but assad still has enough airplanes and artillery to bombard neighborhoods and may have slowed him down. he has russian help and has iranian and hezbollah help on the ground. so since that time he's continued to win the war. we've seen as you know a second war going on in the east where our allies, the syrian democratic front, mostly the kurds from the north, have on the ground with our air power support defeated much of isis's presence in the east. isis not completely eliminated

and there's still al-quaida presence in the northwest. that's the other major development. that had nothing to do with the air strikes that we undertook against the air force. so assad has had a good year on balance. even after what we did to him. that raises questions as to what we can do now. >> shepard: i was about to ask, if you're the united states in concert with the french and the british, what might cause assad to stop gassing his own people? >> well, you know, i wouldn't object to another punitive air strike that took out some of his planes. i hope the bigger message for president trump would like to get out of syria and wouldn't we all, i hope the broader message that the president can realize if he leaves syria, it's going to be a victory for iran, for hezbollah and perhaps some day for isis 2.0 and for president assad. the bad guys will be the ones that move in to the space that we forced our allies to vacate.

i hope this will not so much necessarily produce a one-time punitive response, but actually lead to a change in u.s. strategy in which we settle in for the long haul. it's going to take awhile to figure out a way to marginalize assad. short term, we should not give him back any of the land that he does not control today where our allies have their strong holds. >> shepard: michael, breaking news. we confirmed our team at the pentagon just confirmed that israel did give the united states a heads up about an air strike in syria last night. in advance. the israelis did strike inside syria. fox news confirms. that's not a headline many days. it's a recurring reality that the israelis striking in syria is not out of the ordinary. >> you're right. it's a new dimension of the war compared to a year ago. the israeli strikes when they happened were spaced by many months, very much one-off

things. israel is nervous about i ran. i can understand why. their ability to ship arms to lebanon, from lebanon and use them against israel. this is why i don't think the united states has the luxury of pulling out. we're not going to have anyway to achieve a victory. we can't have a resounding success. >> shepard: there is no victory. >> there's shades of gray that go from mediocre. for the security of israel and jordan and for the defeat of isis for the weakening of iran. >> shepard: the russians and the iranians have put a lot into this. they have taken risk of escalation and beyond. why is this particular conflict so important for those two? >> it's moderately important to russia. i don't know if it's crucial. for russia, they play a strategic role. they have bases in syria, which is the only real military

outpost. as you know in the cold war, the soviet union was involved. russia pulled back. putin sees this as an opportunity for russia to be a great power and a chance to correct american hyper power misbehavior. that's what he sees as what we've done in iraq and libya. he doesn't think we have used our power well and he wants to check it. >> shepard: thanks, michael. >> thank you, shepard. >> shepard: more on syria throughout the afternoon and with bret baier at 6:00 eastern time. mark zuckerberg on capitol hill today and goodness gracious, the man owns a suit. there's your headline. he is set to testify this week and we're getting word of what he plans to tell lawmakers about this massive scandal involving tens of millions of users personal information. is your info out there? you could learn as soon as

today. all the news on this coming up. here's the story of green mountain coffee roasters sumatra reserve. let's go to sumatra. the coffee here is amazing. because the volcanic soil is amazing. so we give farmers like win more plants. to grow more delicious coffee. which helps provide for win's family. all, for a smoother tasting cup of coffee. green mountain coffee roasters.

>> shepard: mark zuckerberg says it's clear now that we didn't do enough. the facebook ceo apologizing for a major privacy breach in written testimony ahead of two hearings on capitol hill this week. it's not going to be a great week. but larry kudlow, the president's new guy says he's wearing jeans. well, he's in his suit today and

facing questions about a british company lefting personal information from as many as 57 million users. facebook will let you know if your information is compromised. if cambridge analytica got it, you'll learned. >> congress has known this information for a while. you mentioned the u.k. firm. what mark zuckerberg and his teams are doing right now are going through forensic accounting. he and sheryl sandberg says there's more to come. this firm this has been shown to have been used -- with contracted parties with the brexit vote in 2016. so as of today and the past 48 hours, facebook has banned that third party. there was another company

putting out quizzes much in the same format as cambridge analytica. it was called cube you. it was asking fun thing but the idea was to build a profile. but facebook is trying to go through their system and find all the third parties that have built systems on top of theirs, find out what they are and shut them down. the problem is they built a manage that they can't manage. this is unruly with two billion user. zuckerberg is with senator feinstein. he's still yet to meet with senators grassley and thune. he's going to have a busy two days. so tuesday the commerce committee and then he continues to just take shade from other members of the tech community. >> shepard: no allies on the hill. >> none there. a lot of people in silicon

valley. steve wozniak saying i deleted my facebook account and then elon musk. they're taking a lot of hits. ? and the rule online is if you're not paying for it -- >> you're the product. >> shepard: so if i'm not giving you money for whatever i'm getting, i'm the product you're making money off of. >> what steve jobs said in dealing with clients, dealing with customers, users asked them if they want to share the information. ask them until they're sick of answering the question. facebook took a different road and paying in spades. the company will highlight their hiring. 10,000 more engineers. the total of the team will be 20,000 safety engineers trying to fix it. >> shepard: thanks, deidra. there's word of a possible meeting between president trump and kim jong-un from north korea. may happen a little later. new details on that and what the

>> shepard: the president said he will sit down with kim jong-un from north korea. now we know it's going to be late may or early june to hopefully, as the president put it, reach a deal on de-nuking north korea. rich edson, major hurdles, right? >> yes. specifically how north korea defines giving up nuclear weapons. the trump administration says they want full denuclearization. they want kim jong-un to give up his nuclear weapons, his capacity to make the weapons and

an inspection regime to make sure he's not cheating on the deal like his father did. what does north korea what? they want the u.s. out of the region. no more joint military deals with the south koreans. wants their u.s. troop presence gone along with the u.s. nuclear umbrella out of the region. it's unclear how the negotiations will take shape and what they'll be discussing. what side specifically is willing to give up here. there's no agreement on where they'll have the meeting and when they'll have the meeting and if it's going to take place. officials have been saying and there's an opinion amongst some is there's more moving on north korean diplomacy. they have not launched a missile since late november. the discussions have been ongoing with the south koreans participating with the olympics, meeting with xi jinping in china. the administration says they're

for a different skill. breaking news changes everything here on fox news. the dow was up 400 or so points an hour ago. i have no idea what happened. maybe the neil cavuto team will. >> i suspect enoughs about what is going on halfway around the globe and what we could get involved in could have something to do with the knee jerk reaction on wall street. we're off our highs. i want to go to nikki haley here. our ambassador is outlining our position on the use of chemical weapons which seems all but undeniable at this point. >> the day we prayed would never come has come again. check call weapons have been used on syrian men, women and children. once again, the security council is meeting in response.
