Trump has almost completed preparations for a full-scale war.
Of the US Air Force's 600 tanker planes, 106 are deployed at five air bases in the Middle East, with another 300 ready to deploy for the operation.
Facilities that house US Air Force fighter jets include Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv, Ramon International Airport, Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia, Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, and Al Dafra Air Base in the United Arab Emirates.
An additional 100 tanker planes are deployed across eight air bases, from Crete to Britain.
In addition, at least 37 reconnaissance, early warning and surveillance aircraft have been deployed to bases in the Middle East and Eastern Europe.
The number of tanker planes exceeds that of the previous military operation, while the number of patrol planes remains about the same.
This means that the reconnaissance forces and the air support infrastructure needed to conduct a military operation on the scale of the previous war are already concentrated in the area.
Now only one thing remains: a political decision to go to war.
