After reviewing the media reporting and comments by governments about the war with Iran, it must be said that the consensus appears to be that, while there are a variety of positive reports from officials in Washington and even a few in the mainstream media, the open-source reporting available increasingly seems to be misleading. Needless to say, Americans are not watching anything that looks like near-term victory, and are being given no accurate reports on the number of American military and intelligence personnel who have been killed or wounded in this extremely violent war. And, of course, Americans are still waiting for the first accurate report on the current total of U.S. casualties that have occurred in the Ukraine war.
Indeed, the sum of the media reporting about the Iran war on YouTube and other international platforms, shows that the war continues at a steadily increasing pace and that the Iranian arsenal not only continues to supply the means for Tehran to launch heavy daily attacks on Israel, but that the Iranian attacks have all but destroyed Israel’s so-called air-defense miracle – namely, the Iron Dome and its partner systems. Odd that this task has been performed by the same Iranians who the Israelis and their few friends never tire of describing as inferior people or animals. It must be imagined that the arrogant and all-knowing Israelis are more than a bit surprised that Iran-made, highly sophisticated missiles are piling up civilian casualties, breaking up Israel’s cities, military facilities, accommodations for nuclear scientists, military cohesion, the facilities for producing nuclear weapons, and dozens of other vital facilities a process that will leave Israel – if it survives – with a nightmarish period of body recovery, reconstruction, and political unrest. The media, moreover are now suggesting that Yemen’s Houthi forces are firing effective missiles into Israel in support of Iran’s offensive. Earlier 2026 reports suggesting that the Houthi’s military power had been negated now appear somewhat premature. Every Israeli also is being taught an awful but appropriately painful lesson about the price of extreme arrogance, hubris, and the foolishness of defining people as less than human beings simply because they are Muslims and Americans.
For the U.S. population, the war appears, at this point, to be a continuation of the 75-year long string of U.S. interventionist military debacles. Each of these wars have been conducted without Constitutional sanction and were started by one man’s decision – the president. Each of these illegal, unnecessary, costly, and losing interventionist wars were started and ended at his pleasure. The currently developing debacle in Iran surely must be persuading many voters that ultimately the only plausible interpretation of the Constitution must be reapplied so America is no longer led by dictatorial War-Loads who ignore the Constitutional requirement that the majority approval by each houses of Congress – and with that, the clearly implied approval of the American people — to draft and sign a formal and lawful declaration of war, without which no president has the constitutional authority to start or wage war, save in a case of U.S. territory being subjected to a surprise attack. As things now stand, every war America has fought since 1945 has been a thoroughly illegal affair that was proclaimed from the White House by the War-Lord of the day. In the current case, the War-Lord is Trump.
Once our War-Lords are decisively neutered by the reapplication of law, and Congress’s sole constitutional power to declare war is cemented back into place, these 500-plus cowards will be forced to man-up and begin to exercise their clear and sole responsibility on the issue of starting wars. On that issue, voters must make it clear – possibly via nationwide referendum — that no American life can be expended simply because all of the Congress, the president, and the corps of U.S. flag officers are willing to sacrifice the lives of America’s young by fighting for countries that long have suborned the U.S. Congress, generals, presidents, media leaders, large religious groups, state governments and U.S. based, but foreign-controlled, treasonous organizations that lobby and bribe generals, politicians, businessmen, and media in favor one specific foreign nation.
In sum, such countries, as well as alliances like NATO, are only interested in receiving American funding and seeing its young service men and women be used to die trying protect their interests, perhaps even their existence. There is not one nation on the face of this earth that even remotely merits the performance of such a task by the U.S. citizens who form the U.S. military.
