Will Trump Attack Iran During Ramadan? US Military Buildup Raises Concerns

• The US has amassed its largest military buildup in the Middle East in over 20 years, including two aircraft carriers and hundreds of warplanes, within striking distance of Iran.
• An American attack on a Muslim nation during Ramadan could inflame sentiments across the Islamic world and destabilize the region.
• Historically, Ramadan has not deterred military action, with past conflicts like the 1973 Arab-Israeli War and Iran's 1982 offensive against Iraq occurring during the holy month.
• Trump has indicated he is considering limited military strikes against Tehran, with a decision expected within a window that falls squarely within Ramadan.
• Ongoing talks between American and Iranian negotiators in Geneva have not yielded resolution, with key disagreements on uranium enrichment and ballistic missiles.
