The presidential inaugural address included
these words America's influence is not
unlimited, but fortunately for the oppressed,
America's influence is considerable,
34
and we will use it confidently in freedom's
cause... All who live in tyranny and
hopelessness can know the United States will not
ignore your oppression, or excuse your
oppressors."

words. We urge you to do what it takes to end the
violence, protect the helpless, and end this
genocide.
