We're not at war with Iran. We're merely bombing the country. Iran's nuclear program has been effectively destroyed. We will keep bombing the country if it doesn't give up its nuclear program. We seek peace and diplomacy with Iran. We might have to overthrow Iran's government if it doesn't do exactly as we say or fights back in any way.
The above is only a slightly flippant summary of the rhetoric President Donald Trump and his subordinates are using to sell the war they launched against Iran over the weekend, which began Saturday evening (early Sunday, Iranian time) with a series of strikes on three of the country's nuclear sites.
A "very successful attack," declared Trump in a Truth social post on Saturday, adding that "NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE!"
