Is America an Islamophobic nation? It’s hard not to believe this is true. If I were a follower of the Religion of Islam, I would think that both America and Israel are determined to eliminate all Muslims from the earth. The previous wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, coupled with Netanyahu’s actions of genocide in Gaza, paint a very clear picture.

YOUR ILLEGITIMATE PRESIDENT IGNORES THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE

I not only admit that I’m a pacifist, I’m very proud of this fact. Since the beginning of recorded history, the number of innocent people slaughtered for reasons of personal gain, seeking greater power, and in the name of religion is astounding and unforgivable. The latter is disgusting. I was taught that all religions are about love, compassion, understanding, and acceptance. That’s why I am an atheist today.

Recent polls reveal one all-important fact. Only 25 percent of all Americans support another unwinnable war in the Middle East. These men and women are likely “war mongers” who mistakenly believe that “wars are great business.” This may be true, but only for the super-rich and our leaders in Washington.

Trump and his Fascist Party choose to ignore the fact that they are nothing more than public servants, and their only job is making choices based on the needs and wishes of the American people However, today’s Republicans in name only offer their loyalty to the super rich and only work for their own, personal gain.

TRUMP’S WAR IS THE FIFTH IN MY NEARLY 80 YEARS, PROOF THAT OUR GOVERNMENT IS CORRUPT AND COMPOSED OF MORONS

Born in 1946, the first war in my life was the Korean Conflict. This failed effort by our military leaders was followed by Lyndon Johnson sending about 3,500 troops to South Vietnam in 1965. This unnecessary war ended in disgrace ten years later. “W” sent our military into Afghanistan towards the end of 2001 to “kill or capture” Osama bin Laden. His effort failed. However, he left behind thousands our troops and the longest war in American history had begun. It did not end until August of 2021. Bush 43’s lies to congress, the American people, and the United Nations about “weapons of mass destruction,” resulted in the beginning of the war in Iraq in 2003.

Our military lost all four wars, and will lose the current debacle in Iran.

HIS UNILATERAL DECISION TO INVADE A SOVEREIGN NATION PROVES THAT TRUMP KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT HISTORY FACT OR MILITARY CONFLICTS THROUGHOUT HISTORY

I find it unforgivable that a draft dodger is allowed to send our young men and women to a war without justification and reasons based on facts. Trump is a coward who enjoys watching innocent people die fighting his battles which are based on paranoia and mental deficiency.

Our nation had 47 presidents, and one of them was the worst in history twice. How is this possible? Are the American people the dumbest human beings on the planet?

How many lives and how many trillions of dollars will this illegal and immoral war cost?
