Did You Know....
​According to the Pentagon, the direct military cost of the US-Iran war is estimated to be roughly $29 billion. According to Iran-cost-ticker.com the cost is more than 3 times that and counting. The death toll, including the 175 children killed at a school, 13 U.S. soldiers killed and 346 wounded, 1,508 civilians killed and over 21,000 wounded, is a direct result of the war. The effects of the war will be long lasting. To learn the truth, go to Taxpayers For Commonsense, a non-partisan budget watchdog:

Letter of the Week
One Man Show....​
Even though President Trump has called our soldiers “suckers” and “losers”, he seems to relish putting them in harm’s way. He’s said numerous times, no new wars but in one year his administration ordered 14,415 military strikes in seven countries and the Caribbean. We were neither attacked nor threatened. These actions were simply by his choice…acting like a king needing no congressional support.
He claimed his actions kept us safe, but as many people do, I believe it did the exact opposite, making us less safe. His actions created geopolitical instability and galvanized world opinion against the philosophies and policies of our current military warfare engagements.
It seems to me his military actions were unconstitutional and violated international law. Additionally, I see these military engagements as a humanitarian disaster, with thousands of civilian and military casualties. And, financially, the long-term cost of the Iran war alone is projected to exceed $1 trillion. This includes the daily $1 billion operational cost, the replacement of depleted munitions and military hardware, base repairs and long-term health care. This war has sparked inflation and disrupted energy markets, putting the world economy at risk. The Iran war is costing a great deal in economic, military and human terms and delivered very little tangible benefit.
I’m hopeful that as Congress hears MORE from us, they will stop HIS IMMORAL-UNLAWFULL-ONE-MAN-SHOOT-EM-UP-SHOW.
