    We Say NO to War

    08-09-2013 18:29:01 | USA | Politics


    Two years ago, the Arab Spring blossomed, inspiring the
    poverty-stricken oppressed masses of the Arab nation to hope for a
    just society, built on Freedom and Democracy.

    Unfortunately, the use of brutal force and violence followed soon.
    For us, Armenians, a significant country like Syria became the theater
    of civil-wars. Other countries too, like the Lebanon, Iraq and Egypt
    with significant Armenian Diaspora communities are also victims of
    political instability.

    As a direct result of regional forces in violent competition, on one
    side the Shiite led by the Islamic Republic of Iran versus the Sunni
    led by Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Turkey, then the Arab-Israeli
    battleground, further strained by Super-power proxy conflicts led by
    the United States of America and its Western allies against Russia and
    China, arming both sides, converting Syria into a blood-soaked Hell.

    The recent threats of military strikes against Syria, by the US and
    its Western allies have caused us, European Armenians, deep
    humanitarian concerns, as official wars can spread out, engulf whole
    regions, with incalculable and unpredictable evil consequences,
    producing more destruction of property, death by the hundred
    thousands, refugees by the millions; inconsolable grief, pain and
    suffering.

    We, the Assembly of Armenians of Europe, reject categorically and
    totally the war of warmongering and imperialist powers, and we join
    our voices to the chorus of peace-loving and democratic forces.

    The ultimate victim of War(s) is the human kind, the very human being
    itself as a species - those who foolishly profit from mankind's
    destruction are the Armament industry and the parasites that feed on
    it.

    We say NO, a thousand times No to War and Warmongering.

    Assembly of Armenians of Europe
    September 6, 2013
    Uppsala, Sweden
