According to sources, over the past few weeks, General Dan Caine, Chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, has privately made it clear to other senior advisers of Trump that the United States needs to find a way out of a potential war with Iran, as existing military options for escalating conflict could backfire, and air power alone is unlikely to achieve the goals declared by Trump. It is reported that General Caine has discussed concerns about military escalation options with key cabinet officials including Vance, Rubio, and Ratcliffe, and has proposed exploring pathways to exit the war in order to promote interagency coordination and ensure consensus is reached before meeting with Trump.
