To: The United States House of Representatives, The United States Senate, and President Donald Trump
We are not Saudi Arabia's army.
No U.S. soldier—nor anyone else in the region—should die in a dumb and disastrous war to defend Saudi Arabia's dictatorship. Tell Trump and Congress we need diplomatic solutions to global problems, not endless wars.
Why is this important?
This is insane.
After Saudi Arabia's oil facilities were attacked, Trump tweeted that the U.S. military is "locked and loaded" and "waiting to hear from the Kingdom ... under what terms we would proceed!"
Sorry Trump, but we are not Saudi Arabia's army.
No U.S. soldier—nor anyone else in the region—should die in a dumb and disastrous war to defend Saudi Arabia's dictatorship.

"Saudi Arabia oil supply was attacked. There is reason to believe that we know the culprit, are locked and loaded depending on verification, but are waiting to hear from the Kingdom as to who they believe was the cause of this attack, and under what terms we would proceed!"
