UNIC Washington would like to extend it's deepest sympathy to the families and friends of the victims of the recent terrorist attacks.
We have been receiving an overwhelming amount of emails as part of a petition -- generated by an unknown source -- urging the US and international community to refrain from going to war. While we were heartened by this effort, the United Nations Secretariat (to which we are employed) is an implementing organ for the actions and programs agreed upon and supported by its 189 Member States.
Therefore, if individuals really want their voices heard by these decision-makers, they should contact their governments and mission to the UN to express concerns and views.
Thank you.
