The Iranians are saying they reject Trump's offer of ceasefire and are preparing to wage a long term asymmetric war.
Trump is claiming the war will end soon, which sounds like he is just getting ready to cut and run
Trump says the Iran war will end ‘very soon’ – but it is not clear how
Donald Trump has said he thinks the war with Iran will be over soon. In a phone interview with CBS News on Monday, March 9, the US president said: “I think the war is very complete, pretty much … we’re very far ahead of schedule.”
This seemed to mark a shift in tone from earlier statements in which Trump had insisted the war would continue until Iran’s “unconditional surrender”. Given Tehran’s defiant tone and continuing missile and drone campaign throughout the region, such a scenario doesn’t seem to be on the cards.
Trump’s remarks appear to have been designed to calm the anxiety ..
The Trump administration’s unclear goals in Iran will make finding an early off-ramp from the conflict difficult.
