Dear World, Americans Don't Want War With Syria

Dear World,

As the U.S. government fabricates its way into yet another aggressive war, this time in Syria, I understand why you might resent average Americans because we allow this war path to continue.

After Gaddafi’s carcass was dragged through the streets of Libya, our Secretary of State told you with a demonic smirk “We came. We saw. He died.” I get it, they make us look like bloodthirsty thugs.

You might think we all agree with endless wars and unlawful drone strikes. You might think we condone the indefinite detention or torture of other humans. You may think we approve of the global police state and spy grid paid for by our tax dollars. You may believe[amazon asin=0922915865&template=*lrc ad (right)] we support our government’s hubris bravado to conquer the world. You may even hate us for it.

Despite what you’re told on the two-way telescreen, we are not okay with what our government is doing.  Our government has gone completely rogue. They don’t represent us. We do not share its enthusiasm for blood. We’re disgusted by it.

Like you, we just want a peaceful and fruitful life with the hope of a better future for our children. We want joy, peace, love, and the liberty to fulfill of our dreams. Obviously, our government doesn’t represent these values because we are not in charge of our government. It’s in charge of us.

Our representatives stopped representing our wishes long ago. They’ve gone to the highest bidder, which happens to be the military-industrial complex and their international financiers. Their thirst for blood is too strong for our political system to peacefully stop it. They operate in the dark and are unaccountable to us.

We’re being told that our President is meeting with his war team to weigh an attack against Syria, another sovereign state who’s never harmed or even threatened to harm Americans — like the rest of its recent victims.
