If President Trump wants to obtain a national security legacy that will never change history, then it is almost time to do so.
The War Institute recently published an abstract of this moment:
“Senior Iranian officials are continuing to threaten nuclear weapons, which is likely to try to prevent potential strikes from the U.S. or Israel on Iran’s nuclear facilities. Western media reported in January 2025 that Larijani went to Russia secretly to receive Russian aid on Iran’s nuclear program. Naderi had previously made similar statements in November and December 2024. Larijani and Naderi’s comments echoed officials of the top leaders of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) officials, allowing the U.S. president to disagree with Iran’s nuclear weapons on March 30.
The report actually underestimates Trump’s warnings because Trump’s blunt statements made at least twice over the past week are clear and public: Iran “Expansion” and nuclear weapons will not be allowed. period.
Iran’s Khamenei warns “strong strike” when Trump threatens to bomb, keep silent about our anger
The president is also very precise. He would rather Iran Negotiating the process of undermining its forbidden weapons program, but the president vowed that if Ayatollah Khamenei refused to deconstruct his nuclear weapons program and proceeded in a verifiable way, he would use force. Trump sent Iran’s “supreme leader” to this effect, and he was clear and obvious: Iran can choose the simple way or the difficult way, but must choose. Now.
At least three presidents, Joe Biden, Presidents Barack Obama and George W. Explicit red line He attracted Syria for the use of chemical weapons, while Biden’s regent pulled troops from Afghanistan.
The three also said they would move the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem and then not. Trump did it. Trump also explicitly supports Israel in his war with Iran and Iranian proxies. As Netanyahu made it clear in a long interview this week, this is not the case with Biden, and we know that since its inception in 1948, Obama has been the highest-supported president of the Jewish state. Even like Israel, strong supporters of Israel stop conflicts with Hezbollah like Israel, because there is a lot of pressure in the world when the world is in a strong struggle.
Whatever Israel thinks this will be, Trump and Israel’s final match in Gaza will not happen. He and Israel “all” knew it, and all Israelites knew it. Iran knows it too. The same is true of our Sunni allies in the region.
At least six B-2 bombers, along with tankers and cargo aircraft, have been deployed to Diego Garcia in recent weeks. The United States-UK joint base on the island, about 2400 miles from the southern coast of Iran. B-2 can be reached Iran is everywhere.
The B-2 can also carry the heaviest and most destructive regulations set out by the United States, including deep penetration ammunition, “broadcasting of bunkers”, which can destroy many, if not all, nuclear program infrastructure and facilities buried deep in the mountains of Iran, and these locations are widely believed to house Iran’s advanced weapons program and our core equipment.
Even if the B-2 is deployed to the astonishing range of the Islamic Republic of Iran, other actions by the U.S. military have led to the rise of eyebrows. The second strike force, Carl Vinson (CVN-70), a Nimitz-class aircraft carrier, paired with its support vessels, added Harry Truman (CVN-75) to the waters near Yemen and Iran.
Advanced Missile Defense System According to the Foreign Relations Commission, the area also reached about 40,000 service staff at at least nineteen locations. Husseth’s explosion rate continued, but the B-2 was not deployed forward to hit Yemeni terrorist Iran and its deceived drones and Clippers. If Trump gives orders, those B-2 targets, if they fly to fight, will be Iran’s nuclear facilities.
“I hope you civilians stop and consider the impact of the second order when they start talking about war.”
The U.S. Marine Corps Colonel told me that he was a friend twenty years ago. We were on the tour of Pendleton at the beginning of this century, and it was a year or so after what he told me. I didn’t advocate anything because I knew too many senior soldiers dared to speak out and even had opinions on when the U.S. military might strike, especially without confidential information Trump and his national security team. But the Colonel’s admonition came back to me, because the incident above made headlines.
Much of the things the Marines did in response to the first year of the Iraqi war was to build models of an Iraqi village where they trained their youngest Marines to train the intensity and immediate decisions they needed while patrolling a village, which could be the insurgents who planned to ambush the Marines. I was taken away by the training site as if I was a “embedded” journalist – something I never really did – surprised by the sergeant’s huge decision, his Marines had to do about 45 minutes in the model in about 45 minutes. The Marines received training, training and training.
Our pilots, sailors, submarines and drone operators – we don’t know if our deadliest submarines are in the area, but it’s a good bet – also training, training and training. However, any mission in the sky of Iran will be risky and it will be the consequence of a strengthened bombing campaign. Iran’s nuclear program may be set in a few years, if not decades. If Trump’s maximum pressure movement continues to interfere with the regime’s hard currency reserves, then the vulnerable regime will find itself plagued by anger in the streets. But if we don’t know about the U.S. attack, the Iranian people may be leaning towards the regime they usually despise. We don’t know. Too many variables.
But we don’t know what Iran has deployed around the world and in the United States to respond to such campaigns. We won’t put “boots on Iran’s boots”, but the Mullah and the Iranian Revolutionary Guards and their expeditionary forces may have deployed cells in Europe and the United States with a pre-position as “payment on advance payments.”
Currently, Iran has about one million weapons. They cannot easily step on any ground invasion that directly threatens us. But Iran’s ballistic missiles Arsenal may have a population of about 3,000, some of which can travel more than 1,200 miles.
Despite Iran’s two strikes against the Jewish state in April and its defensive capability to defeat Israel again in October 2024, this does not mean that Iran cannot strike other countries that are affiliated with the United States and Israel, including our allies in Europe.

The United States and other allies have warned of Iran’s attack on Israel last year and coordinated a successful defense. But this does not guarantee that Iran’s third (probably fourth, fifth, sixth, etc.) strike will not cause heavy losses. Eliminating all or most nuclear sites will not weaken Iranian forces.
But Trump has drawn a bright red line, even though he doesn’t use the term. He knew that President Bill Clinton blinked in 1994 when North Korea made a breakthrough in the country’s nuclear weapons program. The result of Clinton’s standby is that North Korea now has an important nuclear arsenal and the confidence that such a weapon brings. Nukes provided a shield that allowed Kim Jong-un to send thousands of soldiers to Russia to fight Putin’s conscripts in the war with Ukraine. Having nuclear weapons changes everything a country and its opponents. That’s why Trump’s demand for Iran put forward the early stages of his second term, making it clear and gained multiple times. Trump knows that it would be a disaster if Iran gets nuclear weapons.

If Trump orders a strike, expect them to be successful in the goal to a large extent. But don’t be surprised if the aging and angry Ayatollah even takes suicide actions, such as suicides in our cities, such as our infrastructure and terrorist attacks. The president has to weigh that complex decision matrix, judging all risks, but also weighing the consequences of kicking the jar onto the road again.
On the brink of huge events, the American media seems to have almost ignored the highest showdown before us. But they are developing and growing rapidly.
