Behind Scenes, Vance Heard Honest Assessments of Iran War • Vice President JD Vance took the unusual step over the spring and summer of calling US military commanders in the Middle East, Europe and Asia directly, seeking their unfiltered assessments of the Iran war, according to a New York Times report. • Commanders warned that US supplies were becoming dangerously depleted. By late spring, one theater had fewer than 100 Patriot interceptors, while other critical munitions were also at historically low levels. • Vance reportedly came away concerned about the strategy, Iran’s ability to absorb punishment and the limited US defensive weapons available to counter Iranian retaliation while maintaining deterrence elsewhere. • The private assessments contrasted with Trump’s public claims that the US had won the war and Iran’s military had been severely damaged. Trump has also dismissed concerns about US weapons shortages.
