“Crossing those red lines was supposed to lead to military intervention in the Syrian conflict…”

Boom.
This is how you call out atrocities.
The U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley went epic with her condemnation of Tuesday’s gas attack on civilians in Syria, as well as Russia’s protection of the Assad regime.
Haley’s remarks came during a special session of the U.N. Security Council, as they took up a resolution that condemned the attack, which resulted in the deaths of 70 Syrian civilians.
Said Haley, as she held up pictures of children stricken by the attack:
“Russia has shielded Assad from U.N. sanctions. If Russia has the influence in Syria that it claims it has, we need to see them use it,” Haley said at an emergency meeting of the council. “We need to see them put an end to these horrific acts. How many more children have to die before Russia cares?”
The resolution was introduced by the U.S., France, and the United Kingdom, and not only condemned the attack, but called for an investigation, as well.
Russia was pretty much the target of those who spoke, since they’re the ones keeping a protective cover over Assad.
