Fight Back Against Another War

Well, based on all the rhetoric going around right now. It looks like our current administration is well on its course to start another war. There have been some reports that the plan is to attack Iran before the end of the current administration.

It just seems crazy to me as to how blood thirsty this current administration when it comes to the
Middle East. This administration is hell bent on getting us into more conflicts that result in more unneeded blood shed, more insecurity for us and the Middle East, and gets us more involved in other countries thus making us hated more than before.

I have said before that i believe that we need to bring all of our troops home (from all of the bases from over 130 countries) and get our of others countries business.

However i digress some.

Well it seems that the current administration has the Cronies (the Congress) so brainwashed that they will give the president anything that he asks for.

I have received an email from DownsizerDC.org (a very good website that sends out information on Bills in Congress that allows you to send out emails to your representatives about the bill so your voice will be heard). There is a current bill in the House that will give the President a free ride to do the following:
  • Create an international blockade of Iran to prevent it from importing the refined gasoline it needs to run its economy
  • Subject all cargo entering or leaving Iran to stringent inspections
  • Tighten economic sanctions against Iran
  • Violate international treaties by prohibiting Iranian officials not involved in negotiating the suspension of Iran's nuclear program from travelling abroad
Is this really a road we as Americans want to go down. We need to stop this bill at all cost. This bill will give the current administration the blank check to do what they want on this issue. Which will get us into another unending war, more hatred towards us in the Middle East, a rise in terrorist activity against us at home and abroad, will turn the American loving Iranian people against us, further entrench the idea that we are a meddling empire that is hell-bent on taking over the world.

This bill would allow our government to do things to other countries that we would never allow to happen to us here at home.

We as American need to stand up and let the current administration know that we will no longer allow these type of activities to continue. We want security here at home, and while wars are happening, this is not possible. We need to let them know that we want our military home, and we want to get out of other countries business and allow them to take care of themselves.

Viva Liberty!
