US Representative Jason Crow has stated that the American public does not want another war in the Middle East following the massive human and financial losses in Afghanistan and Iraq. He emphasized that citizens are currently prioritizing affordable food, better healthcare, and cheaper oil over new conflicts.
Crow criticized the Trump administration for failing to provide a clear exit strategy or ultimate goal regarding the ongoing tensions with Iran. He highlighted that working-class Americans, who have borne the brunt of previous conflicts, do not support initiating a new war.
These remarks come amid ongoing criticism of the US withdrawal from Afghanistan in August 2021. President Donald Trump has repeatedly labeled the withdrawal as disastrous and demanded the return of the Bagram military base to US control.
