Dear Senator Begich . . .


Senator Begich,
As a veteran and parent...I humbly ask that you vote against any military intervention in Syria.  Having been to the Middle East and having studied the long history of conflict in the region, I realize that the words of Golda Meir ring so true; "The will be no peace until the Israelis and Arabs love their children more than they hate each other."

The actions by the Obama Administration to prop up the FSA and affiliated groups to tear down the Assad government are atrocious.  Supplying arms and aid to Islamist paramilitary groups in order to create a new Syria that will comply with the demands of the US/Israeli led exploration for hydrocarbon fuels and pipeline routes should actually be considered treasonous.  The US is wasting OUR valuable resources in spreading democracy through domination, while the general well-being of our own nations falters.

Please give every consideration to the long-term effects of any action the the US may take in Syria...as We have grown weary of War.  Don't you think that a almost a solid century of War for Resources is enough and it's time to start thinking America First?  I look forward to hearing from you on this critical issue...as there are others that should be addressed before We start another military conflict for someone else's reason and benefit.

Have A Great Day From Bristol Bay Alaska!

Jon Corbett
