What historical context is provided about the Iraq War and its impact on current politics?

In the early 2000s, Senator Edwards and Senator Clinton voted to authorize the Iraq War. Barack Obama ran his entire presidential campaign as being opposed to the war and schooled these two politicians and made it a central part of his campaign that they were pro-war. So right now we have, of course, the MAGA party that was like a month ago anti-war and all about the Nobel Peace Prize. Now they are all for forever wars in Iran. They're all for this ridiculous regime change, which is not going to happen. This is going to end up being a forever war. And so what lessons have the Democrats learned? What are the Democrats going to do? Well, Politico is reporting the following. Pop this up. We're in it. Democrats won't rule out giving Trump more money for Middle East war.
And then moving into an excerpt from this article, several Democrats on the Senate Armed Services Committee aren't ruling out supporting more Pentagon funding. That includes the panel's top Democrat, Senator Jack Reed of Rhode Island, as well as Senators Gary Peters of Michigan, Tim Kaine of Virginia, and Alyssa Slotkin of Michigan. And it is as though history is lost on both parties. The Iraq war was wildly unpopular, did nothing but diminish our standing in around the globe. And then we have Democrats that are supposed to be the opposition party that every single chance they get, it's like Schumer has a few that he can pull out to be the paid, controlled opposition, aka fascist collaborators.
Rule number one with fascist regimes, never obey in advance, especially when we're partnering with war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu who committed a genocide? And does the Democratic Party think that their voters are this stupid? Have you not read the leaked autopsy reports that the Democratic base has a recoil-like reaction to the indiscriminate carpet bombing and killing of people with our taxpayer money. It's just like there's no lesson learned here whatsoever. Interestingly enough, Alyssa Slotkin was CIA. I would believe that she would want to depend more on intelligence than killing people, but apparently not. But I I'm just profoundly concerned about all this. I do not think that we are getting good representation in this regard because I think that we're in an administration that has a lust for blood.
They like it. And just going along with this is not going to end well. It's never ended well. And it's just, it's a huge, huge problem. And Alyssa Slotkin has voted to confirm a lot of Trump's appointees. And so this is my thing. There are some people that are establishment Democrats that aren't in politics, that are online saying, you can't criticize Joe Biden, you can't criticize this person. And that is what we criticize MAGA for. We criticize them for just going along with this cult-like mentality. What it appears to me is happening more than anything is you have Chuck Schumer, who is a hardline Israel supporter. He said three weeks ago that one of his main jobs as senator was to make sure that Israel received all of the funding that it could.
He's not coming out. guns blazing uh metaphorically speaking saying absolutely no more we're not doing this we learned a lesson sorry bb i know this has been your dream for for 40 years not on our dime our infrastructure is failing uh we are in the throes of a fascist takeover but how do we defeat fascism and how do how do we defeat authoritarianism when the second our fascist leader colludes with another fascist leader, Benjamin Netanyahu, and they start carpet bombing Tehran, a city that's densely populated with 10 million people, and they're obeying. It's stunning. And so this gets even worse. Ruben Gallego came out first and he was all on Twitter and all on the news shows talking about this war is dumb.
This is stupid. Appeared like he had moral clarity. Well, of course, he's an establishment Democrat and that was short lived. Pop this up. Ruben Gallego was one of the few Democrats giving concise and clear statements about why this war is so bad. But he's gonna vote to fund it, so all of those statements were just nom-noms for gullible people desperately wanting some leaders of characters.
