Trump's Iran Dilemma: Declare Victory or Face Mounting Domestic Pressure?
•Former diplomat KP Fabian suggests US President Donald Trump and Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu hold the key to de-escalation in the Middle East conflict.
•Fabian highlights inconsistent messaging from the US administration, contrasting claims of military success with rising domestic economic pressures.
•Widespread 'No Kings' protests, rising fuel prices, and declining stock markets are increasing political costs for Trump.
•A negotiated settlement between the US and Iran seems unlikely due to hardened positions and Iran's refusal for direct talks.
•Fabian predicts Trump may declare victory and step back, shifting responsibility to Iran, though Israel's stance remains a factor.
