Black, who has traveled to Syria and been active in pursuing peace and economic reconstruction there, following a devastating civil war &#8212; in which the U.S. armed and trained Jihadist militia forces &#8212; said it sickens him that leaders of the U.S. think mass murder of civilians is justified to carry out a regime change. He denounced the idea of &#8222;humanitarian&#8220; sanctions, as well as members of both parties of Congress who support them. He said the American people must understand that this is a tragic situation, which is being conducted in their name, and must reject the idea of using sanctions. He called on religious leaders and religious institutions of all persuasions to get involved in the mobilization to end the Caesar Sanctions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Sanctions Are Barbaric and Immoral, and Must Be Ended \u2014 Col.
