Trump advisers warn Iran war could last through term

A private heads up reportedly went to Trump from his senior advisers: the Iran conflict might not wrap before his term does, and it could stretch all the way into January 2029. Not exactly a timeline anyone wants handed to them. The administration, though, seems to be bracing for a long haul instead of a quick exit. The US is holding a naval blockade against Iran and running a sanctions campaign, and the Pentagon has extended certain deployments, stretched a fighter squadron's role, and laid out ongoing air defense and naval presence across the Middle East. Feels less like a warning and more like a setup for something drawn out. WSJ has it.
