Senseless Violence for a Senseless Cause

            I am not against the war entirely. At the beginning, I did see a logical reason for us to go into the Middle East after 9/11. We were also there because they were attacking our oil refineries and our oil companies’ trucks and plants. It was a sensible idea to go in and defend our personnel working for American companies, but what we’re in now is unnecessary. From what I understand, we are there because troops keep getting killed by suicide bombers and car bombings, which probably wouldn’t occur if we weren’t there in the first place.

We can help get our troops home, but we cannot do it alone. We can help repair the economy, but we cannot do it alone. We can help bring peace in the Middle East, but we cannot do it alone. We need to stand together if we are to convince our government that we need to get the troops home and start preparing for a better future. A better future that consists of a thriving economy and a good national budget and a suitable foreign policy is what we all want and need. We the people represent America, and right now a lot of other countries don’t like the people that much. We can fix that by ending this senseless violence and instead of seeking weapons of mass destruction, we can seek peace with the world.
