Retired General: Trump ‘Hurtling Towards War’ With Iran

The Trump administration is mulling a plan to send 120,000 troops to the Middle East in an apparent escalation of conflict with Iran, the New York Times reported.

“With the same neocons who led us into Iraq now in charge of Donald Trump’s foreign policy, we’re hurtling towards a war with Iran that may very likely result in many more lives lost, for no good reason,” said retired Maj. Gen. Paul Eaton, who served in the Iraq War and now sits on the board of VoteVets.
