"NO FLAG LARGE ENOUGH...
Historian Howard Zinn down-dated to the 6 wars the U.S. is now waging, bombing, especially Syria:
"We live in a world in which we are asked to make a moral choice
between one kind of terrorism and another.
The government, the press, the politicians, are trying to convince
us that [the U.S. support and funding
of Muslim killers in Syria, etc.], our "terrorism is morally
superior to [President Assad's] terrorism."
"Of course, we don't call our actions that, but...congratulating
[our]selves that the world's most heavily-armed nation [the U.S.]
can bomb with impunity..."
"Modern technology has outdistanced the Bible. "An eye for an eye" has become
a hundred eyes for an eye, [by the U.S. government, with over 400,000 slaugtered
by our side and Assad's side]
which tried to wrap their moral nakedness in the American flag."
"There is no flag large enough to cover the shame of killing..."
"...terrorism...is a very old weapon of fanatics, whether they operate
from secret underground headquarters,
or from ornate offices in the capitols of the superpowers."
Howard Zinn

How great is the darkness of the U.S., Saudi Arabia, Russia, Iran, Syria, Turkey, etc.
Please, for Aleppo's civilians, turn to the Light,
