U.S. Mayors to Push for First Anti-War Resolution Since Vietnam

Link to article

It's nice to see that after five wars have been started under both elephants & jackasses, a group of politician­s is finally standing up to say enough is enough. I am not naive - I have no false hope that this resolution will be honored in any way, but at least I know many others think the same way as me.

The fight against the teachers, police, firefighte­rs & other public servants is a fraud. There is plenty of money in this country, but the majority of it has gone to useless wars, banksters on Wall Street, & foreign aid to countries like Pakistan, Israel, Iraq, etc.

It is true that the mayors do not have the legal power to do anything with this resolution­, but all citizens have the moral duty to take a stand when the corrupt filth in the District of Criminals & elsewhere do things in our name that we do not like.
 
On a side note, I should point out that even though we are militarily engaged in five countries (Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen, Libya) the resolution only mentions two.   Maybe I am nitpicking, but the entire War on Terror(tm) is the problem - not just the two "poster children" Iraq & Afghanistan.
