⚡🚨 NEW - Citing sources in direct contact with military planners, Jeremy Scahill told Democracy Now the U.S. is weighing two  military scenarios for Iran: a “Libya scenario,” using U.S. airpower for regime change and allowing chaos and civil war to follow, or a “Venezuela scenario,” seeking to decapitate Iran’s leadership and make deals with lower echelons within the Iranian state.

Scahill also discussed how Trump, who is amassing major naval and air power in striking distance, including the USS Gerald Ford joining the USS Abraham Lincoln, is pressing Iran toward sweeping concessions on its missile program and regional alliances. 

Iranian officials are signaling retaliation would no longer be calibrated, with tens of thousands of U.S. troops in the region potentially within range. https://blossom.primal.net/3cfe273f658a28fcfd86b2cc9e0664063af59f72c0570ec7de4ba0bc0f6428fe.mp4
