Snippet:
THE war on Iran was launched because of one man’s folly, but it is ordinary Americans — not Donald Trump — who is stuck with the bill of around $2 billion a day. That did not come from me, but from the commentaries of American pundits and thought leaders who have been denouncing the recklessness of the decision-making process that led to the war.
