Faith leaders hold ‘Moral Monday’ peace rally in Washington to decry Trump's 'unholy war’ in West Asia
Faith leaders held a Moral Monday peace rally outside of the White House against what they called the ‘unholy war' in the West Asia region.
Their demands were simple, no to war, no to policy violence, yes to peace and yes to justice.
They're spending billions and billions of dollars on war, while many people here in the United States are suffering from lack of health care, lack of access to food, access to child care, all sorts of things that we are not allowed to have, but yet they say we can't afford it.
But yet they can afford to go to war and spend billions of dollars.
So it's unholy. It's immoral. Our holy texts in the Christian Bible, which I represent, are against war.
We put our swords and lay them down and reject the violence of the empire and all sorts of violence.
Pastor Steven Tickner, Central Christian Church
A new poll finds that just 13% of Americans believe that the US has won the war against Iran.
think that from our perspective, it doesn't look like we're winning at all.
And so I think that we're seeing so many deaths, and unfortunately, the media is not actually covering the kind of death that we're seeing in real time.
And so I think that we're not getting an accurate picture.
And so I think what's important is that for all of our congregations to just continue to promote peace, that's what's more important saying, you know, God did not call us to live a life that is seeking and running to shed innocent blood, and that's what this war is doing.

There is increasing admission in the United States that the war is looking like a loss, economically speaking, no matter what happens next.
After over 70 days of war, the costs are being paid for by the nation's lower class at the gas pumps and the supermarkets.
Research shows, however, that most war costs are incurred after the fighting ends.
