Appeal to P.M. May and U.K. Government to choose Peace and not war against Syria.

Dear Prime Minister May and Members of the UK Parliament,
12 Apr 2018 – As you are well aware, many people are deeply concerned at the dangerous escalation and tension between political leaders, allegations and accusations and unhelpful rhetoric and threats of war, all of which are leading people to ask if there is going to be a third world war.
Only yesterday one young man told me he had just dreamed of a nuclear explosion and asked me if there was going to be a war soon? What can I tell him Mrs. May? Can I tell him not to worry that our political leaders passionately believe in peace and are working for a peaceful negotiated solution to the Syrian crisis, and other conflicts? Can I tell him that you and your parliamentarians will choose peace and not war on Syria?

Recently Donald Trump has made three highly worrying appointments: He appointed John Bolton as his National Security Advisor.
Bolton who has already moved into the White House, is a notorious advocate of war with Iran and with North Korea. He appointed former CIA Director Mike Pompeo as Secretary of State.
This appointment has not yet been confirmed by the Senate, so there is still a chance of blocking it. To replace Pompeo as CIA Director, Trump appointed former torture chief Gina Haspel.
Secondly, in what can only be interpreted as an attempt to demonize Russia, the United Kingdom’s government under Theresa May claimed that the former spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia, who were living in the UK, had been poisoned by a Russian nerve agent.

António Guterres made the appeal late on Friday evening just hours after the United States, France and Britain launched air strikes targeting sites associated with the country’s chemical weapons capabilities.
“There’s an obligation, particularly when dealing with matters of peace and security, to act consistently with the Charter of the United Nations and with international law in general. The UN Charter is very clear on these issues,” Guterres said.
14 April 2018 — In an address to an emergency meeting of the Security Council on Saturday, United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres cautioned against the crisis in Syria “spiraling out of control.“
