Will Obama rethink his irresponsible military adventure?

Despite the fact that calls have been delivered to Obama from various parts of the world to cancel his intention regarding the reckless and irresponsible military strike against Syria, Obama and his ilk are pressing ahead in preparing for a war for Syria.

Massive demonstrations were held in various parts of the world calling on Obama to stop warmongering campaign against Syria. Even in the US, hundreds of people protested in New York and Indianapolis cities against the U.S. threats to launch aggression on Syria. Protesters waved placards saying “We do not want more wars for companies’ benefits”. Not far from the White House, hundreds of people staged a sit-in expressing their rejection to the U.S threats to launch unjustifiable war on Syria.

Pope Francis of the Vatican led a mass peace vigil on St. Peter’s Square in the Vatican City last Saturday in which about 100,000 people participated. In his sermon, the Pontiff warned against the adverse consequences and catastrophic outcome of the war against Syria. He said that the talk of war against Syria has prevented a diplomatic solution to the conflict in Syria and caused the senseless massacre of innocent people there. He called on world leaders to pull humanity out of a spiral of sorrow and death, saying war is always a defeat for humanity.

After all these calls, prayers, masses and demonstrations, it is time for Obama to stop turning a blind eye and a deaf ear and cancel his thoughtless military venture against Syria.  Obama has to rethink thousand times before going on with his planned military action against Syria. It seems that the US president has not learnt lessons from catastrophic experiences of Iraq and Afghanistan.   Obama learned nothing from the devastating and costly aftermaths of the military invasions of Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya, and now he is beating drums to attack Syria capitalizing on the fabricated allegation of chemical weapons’ use.

The US administration’s allegations for war on Syria are invalid and the UN Charter prohibits unilateral bombing in such cases as Syria. 

The U.S. threats to launch an aggression on Syria are considered a transgression against the entire Arab nation and its national security.

All Arab and foreign calls that try to provide justifications for the US-Zionist aggression on Syria are completely denounced, because they are part of the global conspiracy being launched against Syria. The plans of the US and its allies of the West and Zionism to launch an attack against Syria come in completion of its armed attacks on the Arab region which started with invading Iraq in the framework of its so-called “The New Middle East” project aimed to divide the Arab nation and plunder its resources.

The U.S. threats to launch an aggression on Syria are considered a transgression against the entire Arab nation and its national security.

Those who killed millions of Iraqis, Afghans and Japanese by nuclear weapons and covered the Zionism’s crimes against the children of Palestine and Lebanon can’t use the pretext of defending the Syrian people to launch an aggression that would kill thousands of Syrians. So, once again, Obama is asked to listen to the voice of wisdom in the US and the world, cancel his catastrophic military venture and support the political solution of the crisis in Syria.
