I am sorry that your plight is buried beneath front page headlines of an overpublicized political race and college football training.
I am sorry that my President continues to chuckle and chat at the Olympic games with the scheming bully of a leader who is presently sending his army tearing across your borders.
I am sorry that you thought our friendship was such that it would merit a response worthy of what you’ve selflessly given us.
I am sorry that what my country stands for is being blown away by an Eastern wind to reveal that it is nothing cheap talk and worthless conviction.
I am sorry that your inspiring democracy stands alone against a tyrant and that the organization you so courageously attempted to join pretends barely notice.
I am sorry that your sovereignty is so shamefully compromised by the country above you who knows nothing save greed for power and energy.
I am sorry that bombs kill your children and destruction threatens your beautiful capital.
I am sorry that America offers only to fly your brave troops home and add none of its own.
I am sorry that I can do nothing but wish in vain that my country would step in and stand by one of its most proven allies.
I am sorry and I am shamed. And I pray for you all.
