Immediate End To The War On Terror

The War On Terror started out on the backs of shock and pain, fed by cries of revenge, and linked to a single man with a mysterious group behind him. It quickly engulfed the lives of millions of people, whether it be under a sky of bombs or fleeing into the desert sun. War soon spread to Iraq on the back of deciet, and we've geographically surrounded Iran.

We recognize that you cannot solve a problem such as a suicide bomber, by killing innocent people in the process. We recognize that more widowed men and women, and parentless children who watched their families obliverated will create some new desparate people with that same feeling of revenge that many Americans felt after 9/11/01.

We recognize that the War On Terror has done to us what we were told terrorists were trying to do, destroy our freedoms and our nation. We recognize that the terror in people all around us, and perhaps at one time in ourselves, has come from watching repetitions of destruction(such as that of the Twin Towers) on television, and chants of 9/11 from every politician and pundit. "Never forget", how could we?

We recognize that a War On Terror is an endless war, because there will always be someone out there who wants to blow something up. We recognize that declaring a War On Terror is no different then declaring a War On Murder, and that this elections Candidates have spoken the word of War Mongers.

We recognize that people in this country are the only hope for this country. We recognize that only a building demand for an end to this atrociety will bring it about. We recognize that many people allowed themselves to be rushed into something without thinking it through, but that if we all cannot undo the damage that is done, we can at least stop the bleeding and start setting a strong example for the world - like we have the power to.

It is not the military might of a country that makes it great, no. For if this was the case, Rome and the Soviet Union, Napoleans France and Ghengis Khans Mongolia, Britains Empire(that we broke free from) and Nazi Germany would all be "great countries", and we recognize that is far from the case. What makes a country great is the behavior of the people, their ability to stand by what is right, and their ability to be free...both in time of war and in time of peace, equally. Their ability to create the calmest, most rational, life preserving environments in the world.

We call for an immediate end to the War On Terror, a repeal of all related legislation that has fogged this nations transparency for some time, and a completely public investigation into all individuals involved.
