The Trump administration was preparing Friday for a fresh round of military strikes against Iran, according to sources with direct knowledge of the planning, even as diplomacy continued.
Some members of the U.S. military and intelligence community canceled their plans for the Memorial Day weekend in anticipation of possible strikes, several sources said.
Defense and intelligence officials began updating recall rosters for U.S. installations overseas as tranches of troops stationed in the Middle East rotate out of theater, part of an effort to reduce the American military footprint in the region amid concern about possible Iranian retaliation.



The irony of the people that complain that “on <x> people just say America Bad” is that you’re just exposing your own ignorance at this point.
“America bad” is your own cope for reality. So you believe “it’s complicated” comments that make you feel comfortable and like you have some non biased take.
You dont. You’re coping for having to deal with the reality that the majority of the world’s population has had to experience for decades by having bombs dropped on them. You’re coping so hard that you agreed with a comment with made up ratios and a “trust me bro” source. 160 school children were confirmed killed on the FIRST day of the war in ONE strike. Did we kill 160,000 IRGC that day that I’m unaware of? Use your brain mate. Please.
Edit: Technically it was multiple strikes on the same school. Because, when we bomb schools we gotta make sure we hit it a second time once all of the first responders go in and try to help dying children.
Iran killed thousands of protesters.
Trump literally admitted to arming agitators within the protest. This is American Imperialism 101 dude. Sanctions, Agitation, wait for state violence to occur, bomb the fuck out of everything.
You know what would help the people of other countries improve their governments and civil rights? If America stopped fucking with them.
