In the long and fractious history between Washington and Tehran, another chapter has been written — one of fire and warning. President Trump, in the early days of September 2026, publicly defended American military strikes against Iranian targets, framing them as justified and necessary, while issuing a stark warning that retaliation would not go unanswered. The moment places both nations at a familiar yet precarious crossroads, where the language of deterrence and the logic of escalation compete for the future of a volatile region.
