President Trump has reportedly told senior aides he may hold off on resuming military strikes on Iran, despite repeatedly threatening to attack the country if it endangers US interests.
Trump told senior advisers in recent days that he would refrain from launching new strikes as long as Iran or its Houthi proxies in Yemen don’t provoke the US, Reuters reported. ***
The president on Thursday told Salem News Channel he would hit Iran to prevent it from threatening US allies and American vessels “without hesitation.”
That same day, he told sports journalist Stephen A. Smith in an interview that he was holding off on further strikes at the request of regional allies.
“I could end it immediately, but at the request of the nations that I am looking to protect, we are doing it a little bit longer way, a bit more civilly,” he told the sports personality, who in October dined with Trump and talk-show host Bill Maher.
Adding to the administration’s mixed messages, Secretary of State Marco Rubio told the Federalist Society on Friday that the war was “militarily effectively over.” *** On-and-off negotiations through Qatari and other intermediaries have yet to bear fruit. Trump said Wednesday that “we won” the war, but posted on Truth Social Thursday that the US no longer needed a deal.
“We don’t need a deal with Iran. Those days have long since passed,” he wrote. “We’ve got their money, Hundreds of Billions of Dollars, and we’ve got their Strait!”*** The shifting public and private signals come after Trump suggested the US might resume strikes after the midterms, in which Republicans lost control of both the House and Senate. Opponents of the war in Congress are threatening to cut off its funding.***

War Risk Insurance Rates:
Are we just ignoring the fact that they still have nuclear ambitions?
We have less than two months before Democrats come to Iran’s rescue.
I don’t think the election has changed much.
The blockade is in place and the psychomullahs are on their way being broke.
The IRGC deal was ridiculous so no deal.
We will continue to control the strait.
IF Iran were to do something very stupid, there would be a response.
I guess we really do have a stalemate…….so much for “4 to 6 weeks, maybe less”.
Further, the evil cult that they subscribe doesn’t allow them to just give up.
I think Iran will continue to be a nuisance for years to come, short of turning that desert shxx hole into glass.
“Unless” I was not and am not if favor of another MidEast quagmire. But I think Tehran has certainly provoked the U.S. and will do so again and again.
Yes, it seems like they do it almost everyday.
- Iranian nuclear ambitions still allowed
- Iran being allowed to rebuild and re-arm
- No apparent interest in changing the fundie regime
- High prices for all
- Lost GOP majorities everywhere
Worst wartime president ever.
[We have less than two months before
Democrats come to Iran’s IRGC rescue.]
And that they WILL do

Next you’re gonna tell me it was totally worth it to lose Texas. You know without Texas we don’t see a Republican president again. Best war time president my ass.
BS. The regime is going nowhere. Trump should’ve leveled Tehran. instead he TACO’d out like always
“ US Denies Iran’s Claim Of Radar Strike In Bahrain. Says Two Drones Were Shot Down.”
“ The U.S. military on Friday denied Iran’s claim that it had destroyed an American early-warning radar installation in Bahrain, saying its forces intercepted and shot down two Iranian attack drones headed toward the Gulf country without causing any damage or injuries.”

We managed to replace one Khomeini with another one 30 years younger with a huge grudge. Even Bush The Stupid took out Uday and Qusay.
You did not list the sources
Until January - then the Democrats will give them money to complete their nuclear weapons.
Don’t ever pick fights you aren’t willing to finish. I have very deep respect for President Trump, and feel that he was the only one in my lifetime that was willing to put politics aside to do what is right. Iran has been a festering boil on the world that has been causing pain for decades - and promised by their actions and rhetoric to be a major threat to the world - particularly the Western world (but not exclusively). They needed to be dealt with - but the can kept getting kicked down the road.
They will lie to your face without any shame, with their eye firmly on a future in which they are an Islamic nuclear power. The consequences cannot be overstated.
I think Iran will continue to be a nuisance for years to come, short of turning that desert shxx hole into glass.
You are so correct. It would piss off all of the other Arabs in the world, but if Iran wants nuclear material so badly, let’s give it to them in the form of fallout.
Meanwhile the threat inside USA grows, as well as around the world.
