President Donald Trump on Monday scoffed at Iran’s demand for reparations for devastation caused to the country by the U.S. and Israeli bombardment over the past five months a demand he said Tehran’s negotiators hadn’t raised until now.
Trump responded that he is now demanding “compensation from Iran, for all of the people that they have killed and gravely wounded with their roadside bombs and many conflicts.”
Next is boots on the ground? I don't see US getting out of this... Leaps on Defense Stocks might be the play here and long on oil
Author sees potential US military escalation with Iran. Escalation would raise defense spending and contract demand. Long defense via ITA LEAPS if conflict expands. De-escalation, diplomacy, or unreliable source.
