The families of US soldiers who have died in the US-Israeli war against Iran are battling to ensure they receive appropriate pay and benefits for their loved ones.
Libby Klinner, a widow, wrote on social media that the US air force had deemed her ineligible for additional benefits following the death of Major Alex Klinner, her 33-year-old husband, because Congress had not officially declared war.
He was one of six crew members of a KC-135 refuelling aircraft that crashed in western Iraq in March while supporting US strikes against Iran.



Give Putin some credit. He’s doing this much more intelligently. He maintains a plausible pretense to not pay out death benefits while Trump just goes “No”.
Putin’s Ukraine adventure has been an abject failure.
Which is why he needs to weasel out of paying death benefits.
Because he knows Americans will roll over and accept “no” without a fight
And if anyone tries to fight it the MAGAts will fight on his behalf.
There’s a reason Trump loves stupid people.
So?
Put MAGA down.
