Relations between Iran and the United States are deteriorating rapidly following a stark two-word message sent to US forces: “Approach.” This warning comes on the heels of Donald Trump's assertion that peace negotiations were in progress and a halt to possible military actions.

Iran claims to have been readying itself for this scenario for over two decades. Is this merely a case of political strain… or the onset of something far more significant?
