Kerry To Critics: 'This Matters To Your Security'

Secretary of State John Kerry told a Google+ hangout today that it is imperative that the U.S. deliver some response to the Assad regime. When asked about Americans who were concerned about getting involved in another war Kerry said directly, “This matters to your security” and the security of U.S. soldiers. Kerry argued that soldiers have not had to face the threat of chemical weapons since WWI because of the strict international stance against using them as a conventional weapon of war. If Assad’s actions went unpunished, Kerry argued, it could tip the international balance and put soldiers in harm’s way in the future.
