Bombing of Syria

Bombing of Syria
 
Here we go again, another USA administration bombing a country.  How many countries has the USA bombed in the past quarter century?  A dozen? 
 
I am saddened to see people in Syria suffer, however, bombing is not the answer, and we should know this by now.
 
The Obama administration rightly stayed out of Syria. 
 
The fighting in Syria has cost hundreds of thousands of lives and displaced millions in Syria since the beginning of the war, which I believe is at the sixth year mark.
 
The direct American involvement that began on April 7, 2017 with over 50 cruise missiles attacking has caused even further destruction in this country.  I believe this military action is a complete error by USA.  The USA constitution does not require that American forces fight in every war around the world; this one should have been sat out.  
 
The immense resources of the United States should be dedicated rather, to one single goal:
Reduce human suffering with humanitarian aid.
 
President Trump should immediately cease all direct attacks on the Syrian regime and instead help the people of this country.
 
Thank you for reading,

Ben
