An Open Letter

To: Sen. Schmitt, Sen. Hawley

From: A constituent in Plattsburg, MO

July 25

We all know that active duty members of the military did not say (to the president) that they didn’t want Iran to have nuclear weapons. That’s a lie. We all know you and this president are committing war crimes by destroying civilian infrastructure and killing civilians. We all know you are lying to us about the number of KIA and injured. We all know that brain injuries require care long beyond time in theatre. My son suffers brain trauma from his 4 tours in the endless wars and he retired 5 years ago. We all know you are lying to us about the real cost of this war from offensive operations to destruction of bases in the regions, to the lives of our military and the long term care that will be required for those injured. My question is, are you prepared to participate in hearing and investigations to hold accountable those lying to us and put those military members in Ft. Leavenworth for committing war crimes? Are you prepared to hold accountable those giving unlawful orders? Are you prepared to fully fund the livelong care of those being injured every day? I’d like to know if you will plan to participate in the accountability and long term care with the same level of support that you are supporting the war – I’d like an answer.
