The first bombs were only the beginning. Now, behind closed doors,
President Trump is boasting that Operation Epic Fury has hit every mark on a secret four-point war checklist.
Iran’s leaders are dead or hiding. Europe is being threatened. NATO itself hangs in the balance.
Allies are balking, Trump is furious, and the Strait of Hormuz could dec… Continues…
In private calls bragged about on Fox News, Trump is portrayed as a president convinced he is winning a war few Americans fully understand.
Operation Epic Fury, officials say, has smashed Iranian command networks, crippled its navy, and strangled its missile and nuclear ambitions.
Yet the cost is measured not just in destroyed vessels and dead “leaders,” but in rising regional instability and mounting civilian fear.
As Pentagon briefers quietly predict a wind‑down in weeks, Trump is reportedly squeezing Europe,
even dangling Ukraine’s weapons supply, to force a “coalition of the willing” into the Strait of Hormuz.
At the same time, he is flirting with abandoning NATO altogether,
dismissing alliances as irrelevant trophies of a weaker age.
The result is a moment of brutal clarity: American power is working, but the world it’s reshaping may be far more dangerous than the one it’s destroying.
