      Comes as several weeks ago, @EsperDoD told reporters he was pleased to see a “downtick” in overt Iranian actions in the region and that the administration wanted to send a signal “that the path forward is through diplomacy,” but said the military is “prepared to act as need be.”

          And we are left with Trump to handle this. Let's hope the Pentagon will stand up to him if need be.

          Is your sense this is posturing, strategic redeployment, or staging for some kind of military action? Also, any sense of relationship to protests and potential wag the dog situation?

          Great reporting Barbara, however in these times it would be helpful to know which administration officials were making these statements. It's unfortunate that we have to be so skeptical of any information coming from this white house but here we are.

          As Iran is also at loggerheads with the UAE, KSA, Bahrain, Egypt hegemony (targeting the sympathetic Qatar regime directly), I suggest the action is in or around Kish/Qeshm Island in the straits of Hormuz. I say this based on no direct knowledge of the recent moves.

          Has the ‘intelligence’ come from Israel? Their desperation to start a war with Iran is palpable.
