At the top of the site are the words "Chemical Weapons Attack in Syria," along with a quote from President Obama making the case for U.S. intervention.

"Explore this page to learn more about President Obama's response to the Assad regime's use of chemical weapons in Syria and get the latest news from the White House about the situation," the site says.
