The U.S. struck Iran on Wednesday for a second day in a row, and President Trump is threatening more strikes. Iran has claimed it launched retaliatory missiles at a U.S. Navy fleet in Bahrain, as well as at U.S. air bases in Kuwait and Jordan. Iran has also declared the complete closure of the Strait of Hormuz, despite claims by the U.S. that it now effectively controls the strait. Iran's Foreign Ministry says the U.S. strikes have rendered the ceasefire "practically meaningless."
The last time that the U.S. and Iran spoke directly was in April, but talks have been continuing through intermediaries. It is Israel, not the U.S. and Iran, that doesn't want the war to end, argues journalist Rami Khouri. "Israel has made it clear that it's not going to do what the U.S. tells it," says Khouri. He adds that the U.S. doesn't know how to get out of the war or how to "rein in" Israel. "So, I expect we're going to see a continuation of these tit-for-tat military strikes."
