New: Trump, frustrated by advisers, is not convinced the time is right to attack Iran. Lots of bylines on this one, including @John_Hudson, @agearan, and @jdawsey1 washingtonpost.com/world/national…
Bolton and Pompeo out on a limb: “They are getting way out ahead of themselves, and Trump is annoyed,” the official said. “There was a scramble for Bolton and Pompeo and others to get on the same page.”
New details from @missy_ryan on how the Pentagon sees the unfolding crisis in Iran: “Military officials have described themselves as torn between their desire to avoid open confrontation with Iran and their concern about the recent intelligence.”
And don’t miss @michaelbirnbaum in Brussels, where diplomats from 7 (!) countries weighed in: “Pompeo ‘didn’t show us any evidence’ about his reasons Washington is so concerned about potential Iranian aggression, said one senior European official.”
