Congratulations America!

Congratulation fellow Americans, our worthless leadership in the White House and the useless UN! Great job! While Mass Murderer Assad, the Iranians, Hezbollah, Russia has won…Syrians have lost. Human beings! Nearly half-million lives gone. Poof! International Criminal Court says every statutory codified war crime has been broken. Chlorine gas used, throughout 2013 Sarin gas attacks in Ghouta and Aleppo [you know…those pesky weapons of mass destruction that are never used], barrel bombs used by Syrian military helicopters, rockets, artillery, mortars fired into neighbors of civilians. Too bad our area professional protester activists didn’t travel to Aleppo to put their lives on the line to help.They're too busy carpooling to North Dakota to relive their "Woodstock and anti-establishment sit-in days." At least the Tiananmen Square activist put his life in front of a tank to make a point! Too bad the Syrians weren’t Israelis, or our protesters would have stumbled all over themselves to condemn those evil Jews! Especially our “famous” local anti-Jew protester. Not to mention the omission of our area elected officials passing some worthless Resolution “condemning” the war and killing, instead of doing the local business they were elected to do. Starvation used by Shia death squads and Assadist militias in Sept 2016 by not allowing food/medical supplies to get in and the wounded to be attended to or bodies taken out. Bodies in the streets, decapitated infants shown daily by Instagram and YouTube. Not our problem you say? Get a head exam! WE are part of the world and need to be involved if only as human beings. Sorry if that interferes with your BBQs, cell phone toys, iPads, trips to Walmart and/or McDonalds, Facebook “shares” Leader “blogging” etc. due to boring lonely lives. According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights…over 60,000 Syrians have been tortured, murdered, or starved to death in Assad’s prisons since 2011. The list goes on. One facility the Sednaya Prison near Damascus, has killed over 14,000 and women committing suicide rather than be raped or murdered!

Standing silent but protected on an obscure street corner wearing black on a sleepy Port Townsend street  with “peace” signs may ease your conscience but does squat in the real world. You go home every night to your safe, secure home. Have you ever put your life in physical danger defending another human being? I had for over 20 years. So sad for you.
