Vice President JD Vance and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Dan Caine both raised concerns about escalating the war in Iran as President Donald Trump weighed the possibility during a White House meeting on Friday, a source familiar with the matter and a US official told CNN.
On Friday night, the US appeared to pause its bombing campaign on Iran after nearly two weeks of consecutive nights of strikes. Operations are “on a hold,” a Department of Defense source told CNN on Saturday.
On Friday, Caine specifically raised concerns about the US munitions stockpile and other potential negative implications, according to the sources. One of the sources said that Caine told Trump and the US military they could carry out the options available to him and be successful but then warned of the possible implications.
The stockpile concern was one of many raised to Trump during the meeting, both sources said.
It’s currently unclear if the stockpile concern or warning about escalation were the primary reasons why the US paused consecutive nights of strikes or whether it will continue to do so.
“President Trump has always been consistent in saying he prefers a diplomatic solution, but he continues to retain all options if Iran continues terrorist activities in the (Strait) of Hormuz or against allies,” White House Communications Director Steven Cheung said in a statement.
“Combined with successful sanctions that have crippled Iran’s economy and 13 straight days of strikes against military targets in response to their repeated aggression, it would be wise for Iran to work towards a negotiated deal. Otherwise, they know what will happen.”

Are these the same unnamed sources who told CNN that Trump was guilty of colluding with Russia?

On March 6, 2026, Trump said, “There will be no deal with Iran except UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER!” My guess is that he will redefine victory something well short of unconditional surrender and declare that his victory over Iran is the best and biggest victory of all time.

Nobody has ever seen a victory this big. I am naming it the Trump victory.

We need to get out of Iran. Look at Japan, WWII was over in 1945. We are still there.

Pentagon warnings about dwindling supplies of air-defense munitions and interceptors were
key wrt President Trump’s decision to pause the renewed US bombing campaign against Iran.
Following 13 consecutive nights of strikes, operations were placed on hold fearing US defense missile stockpiles (designed to protect American families) could fall to dangerously low levels.
In addition to concerns over shrinking stockpiles of defensive armaments——such as Patriot antimissile interceptors-—— officials cited warnings from senior advisors that expanding the conflict could trigger a broader Middle East war.
Backstory
The US struck more than 1,500 Iranian air defense targets, more than 450 ballistic missile storage facilities and 800 one-way attack drone storage facilities in the initial sorties.
Israel’s IDF dropped more than 18,000 bombs in over 1,000 waves of strikes on more than 4,000 targets, including air defense systems, ballistic missile launchers, weapon production sites, nuclear facilities, various headquarters and military commanders and leaders.
Reports back then were that the action “destroyed” Iran’s defense industrial base, approximately 90% of their weapons factories and nearly 80% of Iran’s nuclear industrial base.
UPDATE U.S. intelligence assessments today suggest new strikes are ultimately unlikely
to alter Tehran’s broader negotiating stance........ or permanently end the conflict.

By TDS do you mean Trump Derangement Syndrome or Trump Deity Syndrome? Both are fraught with danger for the Republic and conservatism.

“We need to get out of Iran. Look at Japan, WWII was over in 1945. We are still there.”
The US is not occupying Japan. We are in the amazing position of having military bases within striking distance of two of America’s most potent and dangerous enemies. If we weren’t “still there” any military move would have to come from bases where the political minefield for attacking them is very small and navigable. Yes, we have other bases in the area, but being in Japan gives the bases there a tremendous staying power and any attack on those bases would bring the powerful and dangerous Japanese military into the fray. The fact that the bases are on the territory of Japan is like an insurance policy against any attack. The fact of where those bases are creates dilemmas for any attacking power.
