Summary of the Event (at least 3 major points; each point will have its own
paragraph)

It's nearly impossible to get people to care about even the most troubling and horrific
problems if they are happening on the other side of the world.
Many children are in need of immediate aid. For the more than 400,000 dead Syrians, 50,000
of whom were children, we are too late. That's because the Syrian regime, backed by Russian
muscle, has been bombing nurseries, hospitals, schools and other civilian targets for years, in
some cases using horrific chemical weapons and cluster bombs to maximum effect.
We must persuade the Trump administration and Congress to debate political, diplomatic
and, yes, military solutions to try to staunch these atrocities.

Your Opinion of the Event (at least 3 sentences).

 I believe Trump Should do something if he wants to make America great again compromise
with other countries and states. Syria is killing thousand of innocent people and there's is
nothing being done. I believe syria needs to chill out like dont be taking you anger out on
innocent people.
