Mr. Speaker, I rise today again to bring attention to the travesty happening in Idlib, Syria. A week ago, Syrian dictator Assad, his protector Putin, and his Iranian coconspirators continued to bomb civilians in the town of Idlib. The Wisdom House School, a school supported by my constituents in Arkansas, has had to close for the third time due to this bombing and the massive attacks. I recently watched a video posted on Twitter of the airstrikes hitting a civilian home in the same town where Wisdom House School is located. Many of the children attending the Wisdom House School are now orphans. There are no military targets in this area, which has been repeatedly bombed by the Assad regime. When we look back on this calamitous conflict, the United States and our allies in Europe will hang our heads in shame for ignoring red lines that gave a green light to Assad's slaughter of his own civilians by the hundreds of thousands.
