“The American people don’t want another failed foreign war in perpetuity, especially in the Middle East, when we know the outcome is likely to be catastrophic,” Jeffries told MSNow.

He added: “What we have to do now, of course, is do everything we can to prevent this from happening.” “It would be reckless. It would be dangerous. It would be harmful to America’s national security interests.”
