New York Times: Under Mr. Trump’s leadership, the U.S. military captured Venezuela’s president, Nicolás Maduro, in a quickly executed operation; struck Iran’s nuclear facilities in a surprise attack; targeted Houthi militants in Yemen; blew up a succession of suspected drug boats in the Caribbean; and bombed targets in Iraq, Nigeria and Somalia as part of counterterrorism operations.”
“All of these operations were carried out quickly, and, in the administration’s view, successfully, with little cost to American lives or treasure.”
“But the war the United States and Israel have launched against Iran runs the risk of spiraling beyond those quick-strike operations, particularly if the administration further involves itself in regime change.”
