The waste of resources used by the US armed forces not only in Iran, has forced the Pentagon to ask Congress for $80 billion dollars to cover the costs generated by the war conflicts in which Donald Trump has intervened, this according to a report released by The Wall Street Journal (WSJ).

The report mentions that, allegedly, Stephen Feinberg, Undersecretary of Defense, has held telephone calls with some legislators exposing the delicate situation that has arisen from the large amount of explosive material used in military operations, especially in the Middle East.

Due to this lack of planning or lack of control, the US weapons arsenal is apparently very depleted, a situation that represents a high risk if it is necessary to face some type of threat from historically hostile nations.

The WSJ even cites how senior military commanders have revealed to him, under the condition of keeping his identity confidential, that the Pentagon could begin to run out of funds during the course of the summer.

From this arises the need for Congress to approve a new financing package, since otherwise it will be almost mandatory to reduce the training plan of the armed forces, especially abroad, as well as other operational activities.

Although the Pentagon's budget for fiscal year 2026 is around one trillion dollars, from the perspective of the military consulted, that amount of money falls short of replacing the ammunition wasted since last year.

A point of enormous concern among the heads of the American military arises as a result of the position assumed by the current government in attempting to intervene in Cuban politics, with the risk of unleashing another war when Trump is still far from closing a truly formal agreement with Iran, committing mainly to renouncing the idea of ​​continuing with its uranium enrichment program and, in addition, not to close traffic to navigation in the Strait of Hormuz again, otherwise perhaps much of the world will face a energy crisis not seen in modern history.
