War Talk




Lame duck no war talk listen to. No grand finale grande. You are ruled by the people and we have spoken in the election. The legal right to escalate conflict is superseded by the moral commitment to serve the people made when you took office. Let your memory be that of one who ultimately sought peace.

Maybe I did not like all the election results but the world is not frozen in time. I look to a fruitful future and would humbly hope for peace as all combatants lay down arms.

No unilateral action is justified even if well supported ‘allies’ choose to preempt another delusion and make it into a very negative reality. If such pre-emptive foolishness occurs, then arms shipments must cease. Propping up warlike regimes is an unneeded expense that is proving unrewarding under deleterious circumstances created when we are having trying times elsewhere. A low return on the investment, I say.

Hold yer fire.
