Trump Pauses Bombing Vacation, Then Decides Iran’s Not Sorry Enough
KEY POINTS
- •President Trump paused a series of 13 consecutive nights of U.S. airstrikes on Iran last Friday to allow for negotiations.
- •Iran launched a missile attack targeting a U.S. base in Jordan on Tuesday, which was fully intercepted by U.S. defenses.
- •In retaliation, CENTCOM conducted heavy airstrikes Wednesday night targeting multiple Iranian military facilities, as Trump declared 'It’s our turn.'
After 13 consecutive night-owl bombing sessions on Iran, President Trump took a diplomatic coffee break last Friday, presumably to recharge his 'very hard' strike mojo. But when Iran playfully lobbed missiles (all expertly caught mid-air) at a U.S. base in Jordan on Tuesday, the diplomatic timeout shattered like a dropped phone screen. CENTCOM then announced a 'heavy wave' of airstrikes Wednesday targeting everything from Revolutionary Guard command HQs to drone Tinder dates and maritime Snapchat stories. Trump boasted openly: 'It’s our turn,' adding with presidential charm that Iran asked nicely not to respond — and he politely said, 'Hold my bomber.'
