Trump threatens new strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] Washington is ready to launch new strikes on Iranian nuclear program facilities, US President Donald Trump said on July 28.

"We have destroyed their (Iran's - editor's note) nuclear capability. They can start again. If they do, we will destroy it faster than you can wave a finger," Trump said at a press conference after meeting with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

According to the head of the White House, the United States is receiving “very unpleasant signals” from Iran.

On July 22, the American president also announced his readiness to carry out repeated strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities. Before that, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Abbas Araghch, said that Tehran was not yet ready for direct negotiations with Washington on the Iranian nuclear program, but the country was ready to take any confidence-building measures necessary to confirm the peaceful nature of the nuclear program.

#1 Why the fuck are we not regime changing Iran? Libya: done. Syria: done. Yemen: done. What was that, after the casus belli of 9/11 the plan was seven countries in seven years? Most of them are done but why is Iran still around?

#3 ^ In general, because our regime change skill suck and in the particular case of Iran, we are still dealing with the blowback from the the last time we tried it.

#4 Why not escalate (again)? Because both Israel and the US burned though their stockpiles of ADA missiles and haven't had time to replace them.
And Iran might not agree to stand down when asked politely next time
