War at home … abroad

To the editor:

Violence is now the “coin of the realm” used by the current administration to wage war at home and abroad. Small boats continue to be shot out of the water, their crews murdered with no impact on the flow of drugs into our country. Drug trafficking is not an “armed attack” requiring a lethal response. Foreign oil tankers are pirated by the US military . Who profits from the sale of that oil? Naval forces are patrolling off the coasts of Venezuela and Iran like circling bullies.

Now the bully has struck unleashing war and chaos across Iran and the Middle East. As a bully attacks the weak, an elementary school was attacked, killing at least 51 children.
