President Donald Trump has put himself in a “weak” position in his war against Iran, the conservative Wall Street Journal editorial board wrote in an analysis published on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

“For nine weeks, the cease-fire has let Iran dictate events in the Gulf,” wrote the board. The way things have progressed, they argued, Iran itself “gets to start each ‘skirmish’ \u2014 shooting at U.S. forces, U.S. allies, or commercial ships \u2014 and then decide when the exchange ends,” all while attacking Israel through its Hezbollah proxies in Lebanon and using the conflict there as “an excuse to stall talks with the U.S.”<\/p>\n

Through all this, the board wrote, Trump has downplayed Iran’s offensives, calling fire on U.S. troops “a trifle,” an Iranian bombing of a Kuwaiti airport \u201cnot a big deal,\u201d and even saying something almost identical about the Iranian downing of an Apache helicopter.<\/p>\n

Ultimately, wrote the board, “Mr. Trump limited Israel\u2019s strikes and previewed his own in public. When the U.S. says ‘proportional,’ Iran hears ‘weak.’ Offering the regime such forward guidance signals that Mr. Trump still fears a return to war” \u2014 all of which tells Iran they have wide latitude to continue violating the ceasefire with minimal to no response from the U.S. military.<\/p>\n

“Mr. Trump won\u2019t want to hear it, but he has been dancing to Iran\u2019s tune,” the board concluded. “He will have to break from it or go down as losing the war politically despite the early military gains.”<\/p>\n

This comes as the latest round of talks to resolve the war fail, and new economic data shows inflation surging again as the Strait of Hormuz and much of the world’s oil shipping remain blocked.<\/p>\n
