Looks like we're in another Middle East war again

Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan. Trillions of dollars spent, thousands of lives lost. Wars are good for distracting the public from the president's crimes.

We bombed Iran. They will, of course, counter-attack. Followed by the U.S. reprisal, and so it will go. The dreary meat-grinder will drag on and on. The only people who benefit will be the corrupt defense contractors who will rake in the money.

Do you notice how they always say we can't have universal health care, affordable housing, affordable college, good public transit, etc. But there are always endless billions for wars.

I say we spend our tax money on domestic improvements. No more endless war!

And all of them started by Republican presidents. Might be a pattern here.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow You think that LBJ was a Republican? 🤔
@ArtieKat Ummm pretty sure LBJ was dead by 2001.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow I beg your pardon, I missed that the post was about Middle-East wars - not foreign wars in general.
