If U.S.?President Donald Trump knows where he wants to take the war in Iran, he¡¯s giving little sign of it publicly.
The conflict continued to spiral over the weekend, with both sides trading attacks in the aftermath of an Iranian strike that killed two U.S. service members in Jordan and injured others. Both Iran and the U.S. have largely abandoned the tentative peace deal the president had touted.
A week of escalating missile and drone strikes underscored the risk that the conflict will reignite in full again even as the man who started it stayed silent, only acknowledging the U.S. troop fatalities in a brief conversation with a media outlet. U.S. Central Command announced Sunday that a third service member died the day before during an controlled detonation of an unexploded Iranian drone in northern Iraq. And the U.S. said unidentified remains of another victim in Friday¡¯s Jordan strike were being examined.
