The Unspoken Toll of War in Iran The recent killing of three US troops in Iranian strikes has brought a renewed sense of urgency to the debate over the resumption of war between the two nations.
The human cost of this conflict far outweighs any strategic or ideological considerations, with at least 17 US service members killed since February 28th and over 1,700 Iranian civilians estimated to have been killed.
Democratic Senator Chris Murphy has criticized President Trump's decision to reverse the memorandum of understanding with Iran, describing it as "frighteningly lost control" of the war.
