US President Donald Trump said only Iran's "unconditional surrender" would stop his assault on the country.

Writing on his Truth Social platform, Trump says there would be "no deal" with the country otherwise.

"After that, and with the selection of a GREAT & ACCEPTABLE Leader(s), we, and many of our wonderful and very brave allies and partners, will work tirelessly to bring Iran back from the brink of destruction, making economically bigger, better and stronger than ever before," he wrote.

A report by the US outlet Politico on Wednesday revealed that US Central Command has asked the Pentagon to deploy additional military intelligence officers to its headquarters in Tampa, Florida.

The reinforcements would support operations against Iran for at least 100 days and potentially until September.

No more forever wars, huh?

Yes, because that worked wonders for Iraq. There definitely hasn't been instability since we left in 2011.

Fair enough. Don't be invoking Article 5 (again) the next time there's an attack on your soil.
