Please write your congress creature and tell them to vote against war with Syria. Here is the letter I'm sending out. Feel free to copy it, modify it, or write your own.
Dear _________
I am writing to urge you to not support military action by the united states of America in Syria. Although, I do not support the Assad regime, there is compelling evidence that reveals the following:
The "rebel" Free Syrian Army is a division of al-Qaeda.
Chemical weapons were provided by Saudis to the FSA.
The FSA did not know how to handle the chemical weapons resulting in an accident that caused Syrian civilian casualties as well as the deaths of 12 FSA fighters.
Al-Qaeda members have documented and taken responsibility for the chemical weapons attacks on their personal YouTube channels.
Syria does not pose a threat to any single state in the American union.
Also, please consider that it makes absolutely no sense that Assad would attack the people of Syria. Even if he did how does that make an attack against Syria by the American union any different? Just look at the countless and ever growing civilian casualties caused by usA military action in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan from drone strikes and depleted uranium weapons. Seriously, are the people of Fallujah better off today than they were under Hussein? Were wmds ever found?
In addition, Russia, China, and Iran have expressed support of Syria as it is clear that American military action in Syria is an act of aggression against them as well. This could lead to a worldwide conflagration and I mean that literally as these countries have thermonuclear weapons. The Iranian government has warned that it would set Israel on fire if Syria is attacked.
Obviously, military action in Syria will result in massive civilian casualties and possibly cause global thermonuclear war. What is to be gained from taking such a risk?
Surely, you noticed that I have referred to the union as the usA instead of the USA. I'm hoping to remind you that the union of sovereign nation states has mutated into a single imperialistic regime that is no longer controlled by congress, but global mega-banks and the military industrial complex. Leon Panetta, on record, stated that congressional approval was not needed to take the American union into war.
You have been given the opportunity to vote in congress on whether or not to go to war with Syria. Undoubtedly, intelligence will be presented to congress in an attempt to get you to support war. Think of the lies that have been told in the past to convince congress and Americans to support military action. From weapons of mass destruction and infanticide in Iraq to Viagra fueled rape platoons in Libya, the lies are carefully planned psy-ops to elicit support for war. Don't be fooled!
Not only is war with Syria immoral and unsubstantiated, it will also drive the USA deeper into debt. Monetized debt to fund military conquests enslaves current and future generations who have no voice whatsoever in how much of their money they can keep (should they be fortunate enough to have a job). The time is coming when people realize that these are not THEIR debts, but the utter theft of their wealth by the banks and the military industrial complex.
The federal government has been at war for most of my adult life. Even when I was 20 I understood that the Gulf War was all about protecting some rich guy's oil resources. Here I am middle aged and I've seen the so called American Dream slip away. Fortunately, I have an understanding of economics, I know how this has happened (the taxation of the middle class to fund imperialist wars), and I know the solution: non-intervention in foreign entanglements.
You have an opportunity to do the right thing on September 9th. It is likely that Obama will move forward with war against Syria even without congressional support, but that will just reveal to everyone that there is no longer a constitutional republic in America.
Myself and other activists will be paying attention to the vote. We will shine a light on the war pigs as we work to return control of our lives and our labor to ourselves. Please vote against any kind of aggression against the Syrian people.
Sincerely,
