WHAT HAPPENED

According to a report by The Independent, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff—serving under President Donald Trump—has reportedly begun looking for an 'off‑ramp' from the ongoing Iran war. The move comes as the conflict, which has lasted more than five months, remains costly and unpopular with the American public.

The Times of Israel corroborates the claim, describing the top U.S. general as actively seeking a way to pull back from the war effort. Meanwhile, The Guardian reports that Trump has faced pressure to impose a windfall tax on big oil companies benefiting from the war’s profits, indicating broader political scrutiny of the conflict’s economic fallout.

The Iran war has strained U.S. military resources and domestic support, prompting leaders to reassess their strategies and the war’s broader implications for U.S. foreign policy.
