According to a report in the Wall Street Journal, President Trump is pressing advisers for what he calls �decisive� military options against Iran, even after pulling back from ordering strikes last week.
* The U.S. has moved additional military assets into the Middle East, including fighter jets, an aircraft carrier, and air-defense systems, officials said.
* No strikes have been ordered as of yet, and officials continue to question whether airstrikes alone would achieve Trump�s goals, citing risks of escalation and the absence of a clear endgame.

the aircraft carrier is a week away from the middle east. more importantly, its aegis-equipped destroyer escorts would bolster anti-missile defenses against an iranian attack. but regime change in iran doesn�t depend on external military force as much as on an internal uprising. and the cia has had plenty of experience engineering such things.
