Trump opposed Netanyahu's plans for renewed strikes on Iran ahead of US midterms
- Following the American midterm elections, the United States and Israel are drafting renewed strike plans against Iran's nuclear program, with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth meeting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel this week.
- Trump's repeated planning and last-minute postponements have caused what one commander called "day-to-day whiplash" among military planners, despite extensive preparations that included flying planes over Iraq to practice strike maneuvers.
- Trump recently considered using the 22,000-pound Massive Ordnance Air Blast bomb against the deeply buried Pickaxe Mountain nuclear site, while Iran has threatened to retaliate by striking Saudi Arabia's Aramco energy facilities.
- The United States will not have its full military complement, including three aircraft carriers, ready until early November, as officials noted that Iran has weathered economic pressures and remains unwilling to make concessions.
- Israel's election Tuesday could complicate military plans if Netanyahu becomes a caretaker prime minister, and Stroul warned neither Trump nor Netanyahu "has made a compelling case" for how more war would change the strategic dilemma.
