This aggression violates international law, the sovereignty of the Venezuelan people, and sets a dangerous, chilling precedent for future U.S. invasions abroad. “No more regime-change wars. No more posturing and murdering civilians in the name of ‘American greatness.’ We are all too familiar with the consequences of past U.S. attempts to control oil resources abroad, and we refuse to stand by while more blood is shed. “This is an issue of humanity, of what is right and wrong, and we are outraged by the path the Trump administration has put us on.” ### _The American Humanist Association (AHA) works to protect the rights of humanists, atheists, and other nontheistic Americans. The AHA advances the ethical and life-affirming worldview of humanism, which—without beliefs in gods or other supernatural forces—encourages individuals to live informed and meaningful lives that aspire to the greater good of humanity._
