President Trump claims the US has effectively disabled Iran's military capabilities, including its navy and air force, with Germany's assistance. However, this assertion is met with skepticism, as Trump's decision to launch the attack was based on a personal 'feeling' that Iran would attack the US first, despite a lack of concrete evidence. This move has sparked debate, as the US president's authority to declare war is limited, and the administration has not provided evidence to support the claim. The conflict has led to rising oil prices and concerns about the global economy. Germany's support is seen as a strategic move, allowing US forces access to bases, but it also carries political risks for German Chancellor Merz, who must balance domestic and international pressures. The war's impact extends beyond military actions, affecting global markets and raising questions about the legality and necessity of the US-led operation.
