What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

On September 22, 2026, President Donald Trump indicated that he was weighing a major decision regarding dramatic military escalation against Iran. While at the UN, Trump defended U.S. sovereignty and stated that a peace deal would only come after the U.S. midterm elections in early November. He also stated that without a peace deal, he could "annihilate" Iran.
