Israeli Sources: "U.S. Military Hits ‘Siege Mode’ as Trump Weighs the Order to Strike
Israeli officials confirm the U.S. doesn't need to wait for the USS Ford, the current firepower in the Gulf is enough to dismantle the regime’s core in a single night.
The U.S. military has transitioned into a "siege" state of combat readiness, effectively locked and loaded for a wide-scale offensive against Iran while awaiting a final decision from President Donald Trump. Israeli officials confirm that the White House has reached a definitive "crossroads," where the choice between a humiliating diplomatic surrender and a devastating kinetic strike must be made within days.
Beyond the USS Ford: The "Secret" Armada
Contrary to earlier reports that Washington was waiting for the arrival of the USS Gerald R. Ford, sources reveal that the current density of U.S. aircraft and naval vessels already in the region is more than sufficient to initiate a massive campaign.
Tehran’s Two-Week Clock
Intelligence suggests that the Iranian regime is currently "driving in circles" to burn time. Tehran’s strategy relies on a desperate 14-day window. They believe that if they can stall the process for just two more weeks, the staggering financial costs of the U.S. deployment and domestic political pressure from the Senate will force Trump to blink.
"The Iranians understand that any agreement now is an act of total surrender, not just of their nuclear project, but of their entire missile program and the 'Axis of Resistance' itself," one official noted.
The Great European Silence
In a significant shift from previous months, major European powers have abandoned their roles as mediators. While they previously opposed a U.S. strike, Berlin and Paris are now maintaining a strategic silence. They have reportedly come to the realization that Tehran has used the "negotiation time" to perfect ballistic missiles that now directly threaten European soil.
Israel: Rising Readiness
As the U.S. nears a potential "Go" order, the IDF has moved into a state of maximum defensive alertness. While Iran possesses nearly 2,000 ballistic missiles, their limited number of active launchers, fewer than 100, remains the critical vulnerability that U.S. and Israeli planners intend to exploit in the opening minutes of any conflict.
