Cory Booker on War & Peace

We're spending billions on a war based on unjust pretenses

My concern frankly is that we are putting billions of dollars on a war that we went into on unjust pretenses. And cities like mine who are struggling are actually getting a lot accomplished without the help of Federal programs that have dried up like the COPS program, putting more police officers on the street, like helping protect public housing authorities from crime.
