Veterans For Peace strongly opposes U.S. military
intervention, whether direct or indirect, in the war that is
currently raging in Syria.
U.S.
military aid to rebels in Syria only deepens the suffering and increases the
casualties among the Syrian people. It destabilizes the region and risks
escalating the conflict into a regional war. It violates the U.N. Charter and
international law.
There should
be no U.S. military intervention in any form, including a so-called “no-fly
zone,” which would be a direct act of military aggression. Only the Syrian
people can decide who should govern Syria.
Veterans
For Peace calls for an escalation of diplomacy, not war. We call for a
ceasefire from all combatants in Syria. We call for urgent diplomacy to stop the
bloodshed and address the humanitarian crises in Syria and among Syrian refugees
in neighboring countries.
Please
take action and make your voice heard! Let’s stop a US
attack in Syria before it starts.
