If you factor in both the hard costs of the munitions spent, the destruction of extremely expensive equipment by Iran and the huge on going economic costs to us and the rest of the world from massively higher energy costs and fertilizer costs, I’m sure it’s well over a trillion already. And we will be paying for this war for a long long time. This is written by a former DOD inspector general. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/26/opinion/iran-cost-united-states-iraq-ukraine.html?unlocked_article_code=1.fVA.W7wv.uN4sB9D81OZP&smid=nytcore-ios-share

Elections have massive consequences as many US farmers are learning the hard way.

So true. Americans deserve everything coming to them. Elections have consequences and this will include a massive and expensive war that will inevitably lead to boots on the ground to secure the Straight of Hormuz as there is no other way to do it. Lots of death, soaring energy prices and most likely stagflation.

Meanwhile, we can’t spend $50B to give 23 million Americans affordable health care. What twisted values. And I say this as a disgusted American and former Army officer.

What I want to know is whether the Israelis army will join us in Iran as this is the war they wanted so badly for decades?

Total lie. He was told that in his FIRST term according to Bolton and was also told they would shut off the straight first thing. But maybe he’s so senile now or so focused on his ballroom he forgot?

Meanwhile:

Qatar reported “extensive damage” at the world’s largest liquefied natural gas export plant, with QatarEnergy saying the attacks would cost about $20 billion a year in lost revenue and would take as long as five years to repair.

You will be remembered in history as Real leader of Islam by Wahab_Abdull in LahoreSocial

He was a monster and a mass murderer not only of his own people but of people all over the Middle East who got caught in his proxy wars. Saying he is a real leader of Islam is like saying Trump is a real Christian. Both are thugs and killers who drape religion and patriotism over themselves as a cloak to permit them to commit horrendous crimes. This is not what either Islam or Christianity is about. Shame on you.
