Senator Elizabeth Warren issued a sharp statement after a closed briefing on the situation around Iran.

"I just came out of a classified briefing on Iran, and here's what I can tell you: it's much worse than you thought. You have every reason to be worried. The Donald Trump administration has no plan for Iran. This illegal war is based on lies and was launched without any imminent threat to our country," Warren stated.

According to her, the US president has yet to provide a single clear reason for starting the war and apparently has no strategy for ending it. "Like many of you, I am truly angry. I am angry about what Donald Trump is doing. I will continue to do everything I can to fight for an end to this war," the senator emphasized.

Democratic Senator Ed Markey also issued sharp criticism of the White House. "I just came out of a classified briefing on Iran, and it only confirmed what we already knew. Donald Trump is waging an illegal war and has no plan to end it," he stated.

Markey noted that the president publicly said the decision to strike Iran was based on a "hunch." "Today he said we attacked Iran because he had a hunch. But we know the truth. Trump is lying about Iran's nuclear capabilities. He is lying about Iran's missile capabilities and is dragging the United States into yet another endless war in the Middle East," the senator emphasized.

He also stated that the president's actions are out of control and have already cost lives: "Trump is completely out of control, and Americans have already died because of his lies."
