“Our troops in Syria and Iraq are sitting ducks, as witnessed by the deaths of three of them on Jordan’s border with Syria this past weekend. If we care about their safety and do not want an expanded war in the Middle East, we should evacuate our troops immediately and stop funding Israel’s massacre and displacement of innocent Palestinian women and children.

Our troops are being used as political pawns to get us in a war with Iran on behalf of Israel. Warmongers like Senators Lindsey Graham and Tom Cotton are using the rationale that Iran is funding militias and can control what they do. It’s as if they expect Iran to have full control over the many militias, while in the same turn,  we have no control over Israel, who we fund more than any other country or group.

American people, we were fooled in supporting a war in Iraq by our government – shame on them. If we are fooled again with a war in Iran – shame on us.”
