  "account": "In an interview on Thursday, US President Donald Trump vowed to resume military strikes against Iran with no hesitation, according to the Salem News Channel. When queried about his willingness to employ military force to deter Iran from endangering US allies and naval vessels, Trump declared, \"No, without hesitation.\" He further commented, \"If I saw things going the other way, I would do that. It's possible I would do it right now.\"\n\nTrump asserted that the United States has sovereignty over the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz, and that the sanctions imposed on Iran have severely crippled its economy. He stated, \"If I saw that things were developing in the opposite direction, I would do it. And I might do it right now.\"\n\nReferring to the Iranian regime, Trump claimed, \"The Iranian regime is collapsing.\" He added, \"Inflation has reached 301%, its economy has been destroyed, and its military forces have been wiped out.\" Trump affirmed that the US has not suffered any casualties in the past five months, and the majority of intense clashes with Iran lasted for only three weeks. This information pertains to an ongoing narrative.",
