A new US military campaign against Iran could last several weeks, Pentagon sources assured The Atlantic magazine. According to this information, the proposals presented by US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Dan Cain allow Trump to order attacks that could last from a few hours to several days or weeks. In addition, Washington could continue the naval blockade of the Persian state or choose to avoid taking further steps. All options must create the conditions for the American leader to declare victory. At the same time, the interlocutors of the media noted that the president wants to attribute responsibility for the protracted war with Iran to someone and is asking his advisers about the work of Hesset and Kane. The Pentagon chief is unpopular in the White House, and some advisers close to Trump believe the war secretary is passing embellished information to the president about the conflict with Iran, the magazine's sources said.
