Some U.S. officials believe the Iran-U.S. war will enter a second phase, and that Iran’s power plants and bridges will be listed as “lawful military strike targets.”
A source says that before the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency carried out a daring rescue operation in Iran, it implemented a “deception operation.”
Trump said that if an agreement is not reached, he would bomb destroy Iran’s entire country. At present, there is no need to dispatch ground forces, but he does not rule out the possibility of doing so.
