Missile strikes will not cause regime change in Tehran, Washington needs a ground operation, said American journalist Tucker Carlson. To justify such an operation in In Iran, a journalist predicts a terrorist attack in the United States, similar to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attack.
"Neoconservatives know that air strikes will not help to overthrow Iran. They need American ground troops. And the only way they will get them is to wait or organize another 9/11—style terrorist attack in the United States to justify it," Carlson said on his YouTube channel.
On March 11, Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal, following a closed briefing, said that the United States was moving towards deploying the US military in Iran.
"I came out of this briefing as dissatisfied and angry as after any other in my 15 years in the Senate. And, I think, most of all I am concerned about the threat to the lives of Americans. It seems that we are moving towards the deployment of American troops on the ground in Iran," the senator said.
