Iran’s speaker of parliament Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said Americans have said “NO TO WAR,” as projections from U.S. midterm elections showed that Democrats have flipped both houses of Congress.

    I sort of wish I didn’t believe this but I’ve seen how they talk about the war.

    Meanwhile Dem leadership has a much more sensible position on the war: that Trump is doing it wrong.

      Who has that position? Can you cite them establishing that position? Even a single member of dem leadership?

        It’s the subtext of every public comment made by Schumer criticising the war: Didn’t go through congress, erratic, no exit strategy.

        Never a word against the myth-making to justify the war, or that the US shouldn’t be in an offensive war against a country that didn’t attack it.

        No, it’s a costly embarrassment, a strategic blunder, an action taken without filling out the prerequisite forms in triplicate.

        Going to war (successfully) with Iran has been an unrealised dream of the uniparty for decades.
