Recent developments indicate that tensions between the U.S. and Iran are escalating, with President Trump asserting that Iran is 'probably a week away from having industrial grade bomb making material,' according to his envoy Steve Witkoff. This statement contradicts Trump's earlier claims of having 'obliterated' Iran's nuclear program in June 2025, raising questions about the credibility of the U.S. military success against Iran. The situation is further complicated by Trump's apparent reliance on Israeli lobbying to justify potential military action, as he prepares to address Iran's nuclear ambitions once again after a period of relative silence on the issue. Meanwhile, the USS Gerald R. Ford has been deployed to the Mediterranean, underscoring the heightened military posture in the region amid fears of a new conflict.
