Americans losing patience with wars

I just read the headlines from Israel's "self-proclaimed leader for life," Benjamin Netanyahu regarding his Iraqui-styled revenge war in Gaza. "It Is going to be a long war." How strange, a prime minister who has been on the ropes for months with internal shenanigans with the courts, ironically begins to assert wartime powers to ensure his ministerial term will be unlimited. Personally, I am not interested in the pro's and con's of the war. Awfulness is present on both sides and we in the U.S. are in no position to criticize the "goings on" based on our own disturbing "lie-based interventions" into the Middle East. However, how much human suffering is "acceptable" as retribution for the horrifying initial genocide. Does this warrant a worldwide conflagration?

Our U.S. stomach for the past decades of worldwide undeclared warfare has been worn thin.

Mr. Biden, forget our "historical allegiances." America's youth feels no obligations, just the horror of the hourly evolution of events. The evangelical claim for end times scenarios in Israel are not relevant in a world that is slowly becoming a tinderbox. Let's consider something unique here,

Peace.

Human suffering is what's at stake not lame nationalistic revenge for us all to participate in. Someone has to speak up against this Armegedon-directed "non-policy." Please someone be the voice of ... Peace.
