…But in fact, the real threat to the world’s security is the U.S. itself, the country that wants to consolidate its control of Middle East oil and other natural and human resources for the 1% that dictates its foreign policy; the country that wants to divide Iraq and Libya and Syria and Lebanon into many pieces, to make conquering their people that much easier; the country that is directly responsible for the loss of millions of lives in the Middle East and beyond.
Our responsibility as citizens and residents of the U.S., as members of the anti-war movement here, is to oppose and stop all current and new U.S. wars. We do not want another U.S. war against an Arab or Muslim country, especially when an attack on Syria could explode into a regional bloodbath. We do not want to spend billions of dollars more on death and destruction abroad, when we have so many human needs here at home. A new Reuters/ Ipsos poll has found that only 9 percent of respondents want the U.S. to intervene militarily in Syria, and 60% oppose intervention. People here don’t want war, and people in Syria and the Arab World don’t want war. That is why we speak out and protest.
