Letter: Bored of peace yet? - Concord Monitor

Bored of peace yet?

Trump’s Board of Peace strikes again. Trump and Israel bombed Iran. This was a premeditated attack.

Attacking Iran, which we have been told over decades were close to developing a nuclear weapon, has come at a great cost to the world. Trump said Iran’s nuclear weapons program was “obliterated” in June 2025. Magically, Iran was able to redevelop their capacity to build a nuclear weapon in eight months. Anyone with a brain knows this is propaganda deployed on the American people to try to convince us that the “stable genius” in the White House doesn’t lie about everything he does.

Our NH Congressional members put out statements about the tyranny of the Iranian leadership. In the U.S., we also have a tyrannical leader who cares zero about constitutional and international law. Yet, would any of these Congressional members advocate for another country bombing us with an attempt to overthrow our government? No, they wouldn’t. But they don’t hesitate to say that our actions might help illicit a regime change in Iran. Same lies and scenario used to justify the war in Iraq.

War is not peace. War will not bring about stability in the world. War is destructive to people and the environment. We pay for it dearly with our taxpayer dollars. The industrial military complex will keep winning. We will all lose. We need new leadership in our country across the board. Leaders who promote peace and human rights in all regions of the world — never brought about by bombing their population.
