The Jamaica Peace Council calls on Barack Obama, President of the United States of America to live up to his Nobel Peace Prize and his anti-war pronouncements prior to taking office by cancelling all plans to invade Syria.

The US has no moral grounds for invading that country and has shown a track record of bloody wars initiated under false pretenses for the sole purpose of dominating other nations and controlling their natural resources. The strategy is transparent. It is no longer a secret.

These wars take a toll on citizens of both the US and the countries it attacks, leaving behind a trail of disrupted family lives, mental disorder, hundreds of thousands of maimed and dead bodies, and destroyed cities, towns, villages and national treasures.

People all over the world are crying out, "Enough! No more! We want to live in peace. We do not need a Big Brother watching over us."

The Jamaica Peace Council also calls on the Jamaican government and other Caribbean governments to join the rest of the world in speaking out against the planned attack on Syria. Yesterday it was Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya. Today it is Syria. Which country will be next?
