Members phkrause Posted October 29 Author Members Posted October 29 US warns allies to prepare for possible Iran strikes, retaliation after elections, AP sources say U.S. officials have told several Middle East countries and regional allies to be prepared for potential renewed military action against Iran after next week’s midterms — as well as the possibility that Iran will attempt to retaliate against them, according to two diplomats briefed on the matter. Read more. What to know: President Donald Trump has not made a final decision on whether to carry out new strikes against Iran, according to the diplomats, who spoke on the condition of anonymity. Still, those threats and the fresh U.S. urgings for allies to prepare for potential retaliation are putting the region on alert that a return to major operations could now be on the horizon. The U.S. has told regional allies that the new round of military action could last for several days, but regional officials are bracing for Iran and its proxy groups to retaliate — leading to a fight that could last even longer, the diplomats said. The White House and U.S. officials declined to comment.

Members phkrause Posted 3 hours ago Author Members Posted 3 hours ago Iran War Limbo Russia warned its citizens yesterday not to visit Iran. It remained publicly unclear whether President Donald Trump planned to follow through on threats to expand military action against Iran after the US midterm elections, amid Vice President JD Vance’s retrospective that the war cost Republicans their congressional majority. Trump had previously floated striking Pickaxe Mountain, a site linked to Iran’s nuclear program that is estimated to be buried more than 300 feet underground. Trump ruled out using a nuclear weapon, instead suggesting he could deploy the GBU-43/B—the US’ most powerful conventional bomb. However, experts warn the so-called “mother of all bombs” cannot penetrate a target so deep underground. Meanwhile, the US has engaged in limited strikes in recent weeks, including targeting Qeshm Island. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D, NY-8) has meanwhile urged Trump to end the war. Once Democrats control Congress in January, they can withhold additional military spending and launch impeachment proceedings against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth or other Pentagon leaders.
