The Trump administration hasn't tried very hard to sell its planned Iran War to the public. While the U.S. military carries out its largest airpower buildup since the Iraq War in 2003, President Donald Trump and his advisors have been throwing justifications at the wall to see what sticks, with a tone that doesn't match the urgency of the military buildup.
"They're not enriching [uranium] right now, but they're trying to get to the point where they ultimately can," Secretary of State Marco Rubio told reporters on Wednesday. Pointing to the fact that Iranian missiles can reach U.S. bases in countries next to Iran, he added that "they possess these conventional weapons that are solely designed to attack America and attack Americans, if they choose to do so."
