President Trump has reportedly rejected a seven-day cease-fire proposed by Iran and expects to resume bombing the country after the midterm elections.
As part of the proposed cease-fire, Tehran pledged to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and resume negotiations on dismantling its nuclear program in exchange for the US ending its blockade of Iranian ports.
However, Trump is “skeptical” Iran will agree to his demands and has told aides it is “likely” the US military restarts airstrikes after the November contests, the Wall Street Journal reported on Friday, citing US officials.

“likely” the US military restarts airstrikes after the November contests,
OR
You could start NOW and be done by mid Oct.
I know...crazy thoughts sometimes at 6:30 am.
After the midterms…is the ‘drop dead’ date for those animals!! Maybe election night! 😁😁😁😁😁
I know we can’t trust Iran, but it’s telling that they are the ones “begging” for a respite. Tell them to do everything they promised - then we’ll think about it.
Likely some idiot who deserves to be banned (too many of these here).
“report” = rumor = likely bullshit, but who knows ...
the corporate propaganda media refuses to report actual facts related to the amazing accomplishments of the Trump administration, and instead prefers to report rumors ...
just watch Trump on the youtube white house channel and you’ll be amazed at his incredible accomplishments every damn day, not a whit of which will ever be reported to we the people ...
