The American war machine in the Middle East is accelerating, and President Donald Trump has publicly outlined the timeframe for the ongoing conflict for the first time. In an interview with the Daily Mail and during subsequent briefings, the head of state indicated that active combat operations under the 'Epic Fury' operation will last about four weeks, or possibly even less. Trump emphasized that the US military has a list of 'very strong targets' whose destruction is necessary to permanently paralyze Tehran's military potential. The current balance of losses on the Iranian side is devastating; the Pentagon confirmed the sinking of nine warships and hits on over a thousand objects of strategic importance, including command centers and missile depots. The President, using his characteristic rhetoric, directly addressed 'Iranian patriots,' encouraging them to take responsibility for the country's fate and break away from the current regime. The US doctrine of containing Iran has evolved since the termination of the JCPOA nuclear agreement in 2018, transitioning from a strategy of 'maximum pressure' economic sanctions to direct, large-scale kinetic confrontations in 2026.The situation on the front is becoming increasingly bloody, as admitted by Donald Trump himself when commenting on the deaths of American soldiers. The President stated bluntly that casualties are inevitable in war, which sparked a wave of commentary in global media. Simultaneously, the White House is conducting a complex diplomatic game. Unofficial reports have emerged that newly forming power centers in Iran may be inclined to negotiate with Washington. Donald Trump confirmed these aspirations, declaring readiness for talks, but with the caveat that dialogue will not halt the bombings. The priority remains the complete elimination of threats to US interests and those of its allies, including Israel, the United Arab Emirates, and Bahrain, with whose leaders the President maintains constant telephone contact.
