US cabinet, military clash over future of Iran conflict

LONDON (Lord Media): Tensions have emerged between the U.S. cabinet and armed forces over the future of the conflict with Iran. According to American media, these differences have reached the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

CNN reports that U.S. military officials are seeking an exit strategy from the conflict, while support for stringent measures against Iran is growing in Congress. This includes backing for arming Iranian protesters.

Following the bloody protests in Iran in January, protesters were disappointed by assurances of support from Donald Trump, who is attempting to end the conflict.

U.S. sources indicate that General Dan Kane, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has expressed concerns over the consequences of escalating the conflict and has urged for a resolution to end the war with Iran.

According to the Wall Street Journal, Iran has included a condition in its agreement with Oman to block U.S. naval ships from the Strait of Hormuz, a move opposed by the U.S.
