Truly I wonder - who has cost us more money, more lives---Israel - -or Iran?
No contest. Bush #43's "global war on terror", which would more properly be named "the war on countries Israel doesn't like", cost us some $8T, before we got out of Iraq and Afghanistan. Now, the US is going after Iran, which is much larger and better armed than any other country on Israel's hit list.
Meanwhile, so much Israel lobby money has penetrated the centers of power in the US, reportedly over 90% of people in Congress, of both parties, receive money from the Israel lobby, that it is impossible to put a stop to the influence. We have seen what Israel has done in Gaza, is doing in the West Bank, and is saying it will do in Lebanon, yet nothing has been abhorrent enough for a majority in the US to say "Enough! We are not going to condone, and fund, this behavior". Now Trump says he wants to give all of Iran the Gaza treatment.
