A follow up on the post below.

The Trump administration is closer to a major war in the Middle East than most Americans realize. It could begin very soon. A U.S. military operation in Iran would likely be a massive, weeks-long campaign that would look more like full-fledged war than last month’s pinpoint operation in Venezuela, sources say.
The sources noted it would likely be a joint U.S.-Israeli campaign that’s much broader in scope — and more existential for the regime — than the Israeli-led 12-day war last June, which the U.S. eventually joined to take out Iran’s underground nuclear facilities. Such a war would have a dramatic influence on the entire region and major implications for the remaining three years of the Trump presidency.With the attention of Congress and the public otherwise occupied, there is little public debate about what could be the most consequential U.S. military intervention in the Middle East in at least a decade.
Trump was ready to go last month but ended up sending in Kush and Witkoff to strong arm the Iranian government into bowing down. Shockingly, that crack team has not had any success:
While both sides said the talks “made progress,” the gaps are wide and U.S. officials aren’t optimistic about closing them. Vice President Vance told Fox News the talks “went well” in some ways, but “in other ways it was very clear that the president has set some red lines that the Iranians are not yet willing to actually acknowledge and work through.”
He ordered another armada to to region over the last few weeks and just in the last 24 hours, he’s sent another 50 fighter jets.
Axios reports:
The standoff with Iran has gone on so long that many Americans are likely numb to it. War could come sooner, and be much bigger, than most recognize, sources say.Trump’s military and rhetorical build-ups make it hard for him to back down without major concessions from Iran on its nuclear program. It’s not in Trump’s nature, and his advisers don’t view the deployment of all that hardware as a bluff.
With Trump, anything can happen. But all signs point to him pulling the trigger if talks fail.
Aaaand, there’s the fact that Israel is agitating for a full-fledged, Iraq style regime change operation. and is planning for it to begin in just days.
And then there’s this creepy observation:
U.S. officials said after Tuesday’s talks that Iran needs to come back with a detailed proposal in two weeks. Last June 19, the White House set a two-week window for Trump to decide between further talks or strikes. Three days later, he launched Operation Midnight Hammer.
It really looks like we’re going in. And I don’t think the American people have a clue.
