The U.S. government should invite journalists to the site of the attack to assess how many casualties there were.

Former Austrian Defense Attaché Wolfgang Pusztai said that the United States is trying to use all means against Iran, including diplomacy, economic pressure through a naval blockade, and military operations. "These three means are advanced in a coordinated manner to achieve U.S. strategic goals. This means that the current primary goal is to open the Strait of Hormuz," Putstedt said. "The United States adopted a 'hot and cold' tactic to promote Iran's willingness to end the entire war. In other words, they were bombed one night and were safe the other night. This is also a kind of psychological pressure on the Iranians, " he added. Pusztai said that although Trump is pursuing negotiations, there are two factions within the Iranian leadership: one wants to restore the memorandum of understanding, and the other "seeks first to establish control of the Strait of Hormuz through military means."
