The US is considering launching "the mother of all bombs" at Iran, according to the CNN Trump would be considering launching the largest non-nuclear projectile the Pentagon has before the elections - ENG WashingtonThe war in Iran could still escalate further. The United States is considering a new wave of attacks against Iranian nuclear infrastructure in which they would use the "mother of all bombs," according to various government sources to the CNN. The model in question is the GBU-43/B MOAB, a GPS-guided air-launched massive bomb that constitutes the largest non-nuclear projectile in the US military arsenal. The US president, Donald Trump, is considering this new wave of attacks just before the legislative elections, that is, in the next three weeks. All the same, it is still questionable whether a new major escalation with the Islamic Republic would have any kind of long-term strategic effect. Especially because it could dynamite the bridges that the Omani mediators have tried to rebuild in recent weeks. Using the known name "mother of all bombs" would be more of a display of force on the eve of the elections and at a time when Trump is increasingly concerned about the rising cost of living. This Wednesday, inflation data for September was published, which increased by 0.6% compared to August to already be around 3.7%. An increase caused by the rising price of energy, which is rising as the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz lengthens and threatens to worsen due to the Houthis' offensive from Yemen around the Bab el-Mandeb strait. Almost nine months after bombing Iran together with Israel, the campaign in the Middle East continues without end, neither military nor diplomatic. The prolongation of the conflict has brought about some of the worst predictions of North American military assessors: the Pentagon's essential arsenal reserves—such as Patriot anti-air missiles—are at critical levels and there is no prospect of replenishing them in the short term. In this sense, a new escalation with the Islamic Republic would involve spending more ammunition without knowing if the gain would bring a clear benefit on the ground.
