Michael Moore‘s Letter to Obama about Afghanistan

(Original: Nov 30, 2009)

When we elected you we didn‘t expect miracles. We didn‘t even expect much change. But we expected some. We thought you would stop the madness. Stop the killing. Stop the insane idea that men with guns can reorganize a nation that doesn‘t even function as a nation and never, ever has.

Stop, stop, stop! For the sake of the lives of young Americans and Afghan civilians, stop. For the sake of your presidency, hope, and the future of our nation, stop. For God‘s sake, stop.

Tonight we still have hope.

Tomorrow, we shall see.
