Description: The Cost of War Is Real and OngoingSoldiers and their families continue to suffer from past wars (Iraq, Afghanistan).The deaths and trauma are often forgotten by the public and policymakers.War shouldn't be treated as a casual or inevitable policy option.2. War with Iran Would Be DisastrousIran is not Iraq; it has 85 million people, rugged terrain, and alliances with Russia and China.A U.S. strike would likely provoke Iran to close the Strait of Hormuz, spiking global oil prices and damaging the U.S. economy.The risk of nuclear confrontation is real for the first time since the Cuban Missile Crisis.3. The Push for War Is Driven by Others' AgendasFigures like Lindsey Graham, John Bolton, and Tom Cotton are accused of relentlessly pushing for war.Israel is portrayed as a driving force behind calls for attacking Iran, with U.S. support being misused.The U.S. military should not be a tool for foreign powers to settle their own scores.4. Diplomacy Is Still an OptionThe U.S. can and should choose diplomacy over war.Past agreements like the Iran nuclear deal (JCPOA) effectively constrained Iran’s nuclear ambitions until they were abandoned.The speaker calls for restraint, realism, and long-term thinking over short-sighted militarism.5. Moral and Constitutional ResponsibilityAmerica should uphold its Constitutional principles and only go to war when directly attacked.Leaders have a duty to protect American lives, not risk them for foreign territorial disputes.Conclusion:The speaker urges Americans to reject unnecessary war, advocate for peace through strength and diplomacy, and stop letting vested interests manipulate foreign policy. The future depends on wise choices today — prioritizing American lives, values, and long-term stability over reckless interventionism.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
