File under: Govt of Syria

#1 On October 5, 1877, his speech, as he [ Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce tribe] surrendered to General Howard, immortalized him in American history forever:

"I am tired of fighting. Our chiefs are killed. Looking Glass is dead. Toohoolhoolzote is dead. The old men are all dead. It is the young men who say, 'Yes' or 'No.' He who led the young men [Olikut] is dead. It is cold, and we have no blankets. The little children are freezing to death. My people, some of them, have run away to the hills, and have no blankets, no food. No one knows where they are — perhaps freezing to death. I want to have time to look for my children, and see how many of them I can find. Maybe I shall find them among the dead. Hear me, my chiefs! I am tired. My heart is sick and sad. From where the sun now stands I will fight no more forever."

The Syrian Rebels could learn from this. Maybe, just maybe, we need more less "help" from the UN to end Wars.
