Mehr examined; War against Iran; a costly quagmire that has ensnared Washington 🔺 The recent budget allocation committee meeting in the U.S. Senate revealed, contrary to the efforts of Donald Trump's administration to showcase the success of military operations against Iran, the rising costs of the war, the lack of an exit strategy, and increasing doubts in Washington about the outcome of this conflict. 🔺 "Pete Hegseth," the U.S. Secretary of War, stated in this meeting that the direct costs of the war against Iran have so far reached 37.5 billion dollars, and the government has requested an emergency budget of 87.6 billion dollars for the continuation of military operations, with over 67 billion dollars allocated to the war with Iran. 🔺 However, many American analysts believe that this figure is only a portion of the actual cost of the war, and hidden costs, damage to U.S. bases, replacement of destroyed equipment, treatment of the wounded, deployment of forces, and long-term costs raise the actual figure significantly higher.
