My letter to a U.S. Congressman to stop temptation for an unnecessary war with Iran 

Dear Congressman,
I strongly urge you to do everything in your power to stopping another war 
with Iran which would be suicidal for our country, that is already a 
debtor country, courtesy of two wars started by President Bush and 
continued by President Obama. 

Iranian leaders have repeatedly assured us that their nuclear program is 
for peaceful purpose, e.g., medical use. It is better to believe them than 
to start a war on false premises, much like we did with Iraqi invasion. 
The Iraqi war has bankrupted us, killed nearly 5000 of our forces and 
injured another 50,000. Was that necessary? Surely not. Let's not repeat 
the mistakes of the Bush era.

Six years later, about half a million Rohingya refugee children are living in exi...
