Trump is considering a new military attack again

[boumalo]

It all seemed like it was winding down, no boots on the ground, but if they don't agree on a deal, it could re-ignate.

[Razmirraz]

Go and check the history of trump especially on this his second term as president. Trump has implemented anything that he says. From the tariffs war to the capturing of Maduro and don't forget the military actions on Nigeria as he throw some bombs there and is likely to revisit the Nigerian case again after this war on Iran and finally we are all seeing what is happening presently on the middle east. Trump has go ahead to implement threats so trump will resume his attack on Iran after these peace talks ends.

Trump has demonstrated his aggressive policy execution. He has also tried to create his rhetorical threats into concrete military or economic action, and he has focused more on rapidly deploying military force to gain an advantage. Such as the case of the arrest of Maduro who wants to take over the "management" of Venezuela for the transition of power, while the military action in Nigeria to combat militant groups after making accusations of persecution against Christians there, but according to the news I read, the situation shows a development towards a military partnership rather than a direct invasion.
Trump will face pressure from Congress if he continues military operations against Iran, he also knows that he will face the risk because Iran is not a country that is easy to defeat, perhaps the US will experience greater losses, both in terms of the economy and the loss of life of its troops if Trump continues to take a foreign policy approach that is very aggressive, transactional, and focuses on America First.

Trump today is in China, according to Google. The visit is designed to address pressing trade disputes, seek cooperation on ending the war in Iran, and manage tensions regarding Taiwan and I hope this is true the oil price spike is hit everything. Indonesia is suffering heck even US is suffering from the price of oil, I mean, why the heck do people go to war? WAR is useless in my opinion and just pushes ego.

The situation is definitely serious. The threat to accelerate their nuclear program is likely an attempt to gain leverage before a full military confrontation.From an economic perspective, the U.S. is certainly bleeding cash on this, but they are also losing billions more in trade every day the Strait of Hormuz remains blocked.

The Republicans are scared that Trump's rating drop will affect future elections.

If voting is held today, the Democrats will overwhelm the Republicans. Based on this month's rating, Trump has 62% disapproval rating.

The world is watching closely the outcome of the high-stakes talks between Trump and Xi in China. The Iran war is one of the important topics that will be discussed. Global leaders expect that these two powerful presidents will form a common group, which will lead to a permanent ceasefire deal.

I hope something positive comes out, so many countries cannot endure another round of oil crisis. Here in our country, inflation is at an all-time high, coupled with political unrest.
This is the tragedy of contries that are dependent of oil coming from the middle east.

This just came out: Trump is considering a military attack because of the continuous closure of the Strait of Hormuz, and Tehran responded that it will accelerate its nuclear weapon program after Trump called Tehran's proposal trash.
Do you think Trump is serious about the planned attack because Tehan is unyielding to their demands? The US is losing billions on this war. Can they keep up if there is another round of attacks?


Tehran threatens to accelerate nuclear weapon programme after Trump rejects ‘garbage’ peace proposal response

Such a threat from Iran would further infuriate Trump and could escalate the war situation. Failure to bring Iran to its knees is a setback for Trump because despite the billions of dollars in damage to the United States, Iran's missile capabilities are still very strong.

The New York Times reported that Iran is trying to recover from the US attack and return to its previous military position, and they have largely succeeded.

In fact Iran is in a geographically advantageous position and China and Russia are playing a strong role in supporting them.

As far as I know, if Trump really wants another military attack, he must seek approval from Congress because there is a law called the War Powers Resolution which he has used before for attacks on Iran. And Trump also has to think about the cost, as already explained the US has spent huge funds for the war with Iran before. Although America finances are huge, it will still affect their finances in the future.

[YOSHIE]

This just came out: Trump is considering a military attack because of the continuous closure of the Strait of Hormuz,

Trump is frustrated with Iran and has gone crazy to overcome the Strait of Hormuz, that's how a leader is greedy and greedy for other people's wealth, he wants to live in this world, wants to rival Pharaoh.

The proof is that crypto assets such as Bitcoin are also being fought over and confiscated by Trump, now he wants the global economy, he wants to dominate it, he doesn't realize that Iran is Persia which has never lost a war.

[Cryptomultiplier]

If Trump say he is going to attack you better believe him. The only thing that will make him not to attack is if things are going in the direction he wants and so far nothing look like he is getting it the way he wants, since Iran are saying that they will accelerate their their nuclear weapon program, and Trump vowing that Iran will never have a nuclear weapon. If the disagreement lingers, Trump will attack to force Iran to the negotiation table in order to get what he wants.

The war is becoming more expensive for the US. And there are also internal pressure from Trump's allies urging him to seek dialogue instead of starting another round of attack. The Republicans are scared that Trump's rating drop will affect future elections. The world is watching closely the outcome of the high-stakes talks between Trump and Xi in China. The Iran war is one of the important topics that will be discussed. Global leaders expect that these two powerful presidents will form a common group, which will lead to a permanent ceasefire deal.

A ceasefire deal might not just come easy because Iran is using the strait of Hormuz as a leverage position to drive home their point and they are willing to go great lengths to cause global economic pain that will make the U.S back down, but I doubt the U.S would be allowed to be backed into the corner of ceasefire mostly as Iran is talking about using nuclear weapons.
The U.S may have the technical capacity but there's no saying how this impacts their arsenal and economy on the broader scale.

So far, Brent crude has risen to about $103 per barrel while U S gasoline prices have also risen to about 27% in this year already.
There's going to be serious economic world impact on the world should this war continue whether we accept this fact or not.

Even though there are allot of threads concerning this particular war that is going on in the middle east, I think that there was no need to creating a new thread again concerning the military faceoff going on between Israel, USA vs Iran. But you are asking if Trump is serious about about his threats. I suppose that at this present point in time everyone should have come to the realization that trump is one leader that don't play when ever he issue a threat.


Go and check the history of trump especially on this his second term as president. Trump has implemented anything that he says. From the tariffs war to the capturing of Maduro and don't forget the military actions on Nigeria as he throw some bombs there and is likely to revisit the Nigerian case again after this war on Iran and finally we are all seeing what is happening presently on the middle east. Trump has go ahead to implement threats so trump will resume his attack on Iran after these peace talks ends.

I dont see any issue creating a new thread for this discussion. Perhaps OP wants to focus the discussion on the recent intended action by Trump in the war. Visit politics and society, around 12 threads are focusing on Trump, the Israel-US vs Iran war, and politics in the US.

Your second statement is laughable. What has Trump achieved so far, since the start of his second tenure? The only thing Trump has achieved is taking over the resources of Venezuela. Trump failed in the tariff war. The news regarding the bombing in Nigeria is all fake news. Trump has also failed to defeat Iran in the war. Please tell me what I need to know.

This is what the congress now is fighting before the approval. I've watched one guy, I'm not sure if he was a congressman or senator since I have no idea who are the politicians there. But he's asking Hegseth what the citizens will get for continuing the war. If that's just fine to get at least $600 for each US citizens to continue funding this war while many remains to be problematic with hunger. You know the typical problems of a citizen when a war is funded with so much money from the taxpayers and they get nothing in return. So it seems interesting what will be the verdict.

Why did you mention Nigeria? Know that there is nothing good that Trump wants to do in Nigeria. You should learn how to do your country good by yourselves, America will not be in Nigeria to help you than to take from you. Nigeria issue is very complicated than the help United States will provide.

You want to tell me that with the efforts of trump which has helped to bring the Christian genocide to the limelight, and has designated Nigeria as a country of particular concern. You can't tell me that trump not coming to do anything good in Nigeria. Trump is coming to liberate and help Nigeria fight against these terrorists because it's obvious that the country security forces has failed, and has failed to secure life and property of the country citizens.


I believe that Trump will come to send his forces to Nigeria in the coming days, we should remove the sentiment of America coming to looting our wealth or not the case of Nigeria needs international intervention because there is killing and a jihad going on in the country and trump should come to our aid.

[Coyster]

Trump has also failed to defeat Iran in the war.

It depends on what we call "defeat" here. Militarily they have been defeated, the U.S. has killed some of their leaders and taken out top Iranian military personnel, it is hard to tell who's even running things over there right now. That said, Iran has an important advantage with their proximity to the Strait of Hormuz and that is the card they hold in this war and it is an important one because of its implication in global economics. But it is not far from the truth to say there are no real winner yet in this.

Op why will you say that the bombing of terrorists in Nigeria is fake news ,that means that you are not following up with the trending News, The truth is that many people are not too happy with trump because of his approach and style of leadership. But one thing that you can't take away from trump is that he is a man that mean everything that he says, how do you know that trump has lost the trade war which led to him introducing the tariffs.



We may not like what trump is doing but the fact is if not of leaders like trump in the world, terrorist should have taken over the world, the world needs people like trump, if the world is to have peace.

You mean from his allies in isreal?! Asides that, no American wants to continue the unnecessary war with iran. They already lost the war and got all of their assets in the middle east all blown down to ruble. The truth is, Iranian government have seen it all, they're ready for what comes next.
As for the talks with Xi, it should be mainly about rare earth minerals,  automobile production and lastly, using Ai and robotics for production. It is the main reason why he was accompanied by those wealthy billionaires. Donald Trump claims to love strong presidents, but he screams nothing but a coward who can not cut off Netanyahu from committing genocide in Palestine and Lebanon.

Although America finances are huge, it will still affect their finances in the future.

Congress can't do anything if Trump want to make an attack on any country they see as imminent threats. I was listening to the interview and questioning of secretary of defense, Hegset, I was so annoyed that he never answered most of the questions directed at him by the senators, he was trying to avoid what could lead him into problems and what was the end of the session,
"I reclaimed my time", "I reclaimed my time", "agree and disagree". This government will not seek for an approval if they want to do their evil attack.

The only reason I see Trump not making any attack is the war looks regrettable, no achievement, it's calling for quick resolve so oil price can become stable, even while at this short one it will take months before the price can be stable, any more attempt to destabilize middle east will only cause more damage. This is even what Iran is leveraging to want to continue to attack Gulf nations and after 4 years in the office, there will be nothing to defend, it's going to be a shameful and cooking ingredient for democrats to make new campaign strategies to get his party in the next election.

[Makus]

I know it is going to be a matter of time before trump does something to attack Iran again, for even after the cease fire that even made Iran think they conquered US. Trump has been ready to attack this country while but he hasn't had a really had.Trumo isn't really a peace maker to me because if he doesn't seem to make of it. Although trump's policies has been helping the country but his problem is that he acts like a dictator. this war has lasted for a long time.and it's high for it to stop because it doesn't seem to favour other parts of the world

[JeffBrad12]

Not a shocking news considering the negotiation so far has been a very loose negotiation, there's no certainty at all.
If there is another attack, expect the oil price to go even higher, there's no stopping the oil to double from current price at this point.

[DanWalker]

Hormuz is the most important route in the global energy transport system. However, it only accounts for about 20% of global oil supply. Therefore, if the disruption is prolonged, oil prices are likely to rise further if not compensated accordingly from other sources. But I think it would be an exaggeration to predict that world oil prices will double from current levels.

Oil prices are currently up more than 50% compared to prewar, which is a very significant increase.

Do you think Trump is serious about the planned attack because Tehan is unyielding to their demands? The US is losing billions on this war. Can they keep up if there is another round of attacks?

Yes, the US can keep up with another round of attacks. After all, it's the US. If they can't do it, which country can? However, the question is, if that is possible, is it convenient? That's the factor I believe Trump is considering now. Otherwise, he would have resumed another waves of bombing by now, and everything would have been worse than before.

As for Iran, they should take it easy. Imagine this campaign continues? As beaten as they are, despite proving headstrong, is nuclear ambition worth all these destructions?

[fuguebtc]

That is highly unlikely because under the US Constitution, Trump, as commander in chief, has authority to conduct military operations for up to 90 day without congressional approval. After that period, in order to continue the war, he needed the approval of Congress.

Currently, the 90-day deadline is almost over, and that is why a ceasefire has been established. Instead, economic tactics such as blockading the Strait of Hormuz have been used to cut off Iran's income streams.


There is still a possibility that the war will continue, but the probability is very low.
