Lately, Bernie Sanders has been criticized for his opposition to the Vietnam War, the invasion or Iraq, and a potential invasion of Iran.<\/p>\n
He has refused to apologize<\/a>, and he should continue to refuse, because he was, and is, right, and his critics are, and were, wrong:<\/p>\n Sen. Bernie Sanders<\/a> (I-Vt.) took aim at calls for him to “apologize” for his refusal to support U.S. armed conflicts in the Middle East, saying Friday that he was “right” about past U.S. wars and would continue to advocate against war with Iran.<\/span> I was right about Iraq.<\/p>\n I will do everything in my power to prevent a war with Iran.<\/p>\n I apologize to no one. pic.twitter.com\/Lna3oBZMKB<\/a><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/span>In a tweet, Sanders wrote that he will “apologize to no one” for supporting peaceful diplomatic efforts over armed conflict with Iran, citing U.S. wars in Iraq and Vietnam as examples of past U.S. armed responses that resulted in long-running and exhausting wars.<\/span>
<\/span>“I was right about Vietnam. I was right about Iraq. I will do everything in my power to prevent a war with Iran. I apologize to no one,” the senator tweeted, along with a video explaining his stance against war with the country.<\/span><\/p>\n\n
