The Wall Street Journal:
🔹 Donald Trump, following the publication of media reports about the reduction of US ammunition reserves during the war with Iran, has ordered the start of a new investigation to identify the perpetrators of the Pentagon's secret information leak.

[🔹] (emoji/5888681238360757868) This action takes place while the White House continues to insist that the US military has sufficient weaponry for any military operation.

🔹 In recent weeks, Trump has strongly expressed his displeasure with the publication of reports that indicated the reduction of US missile and ammunition stockpiles, and believes that such reports can make Iran bolder and weaken Washington's position in trying to force Tehran to stop its nuclear program.

⚡️🇺🇸🇨🇳 — US Military Stockpile Shortages Could Leave Washington Vulnerable to China, Historian Warns, — THE JERUSALEM POST.

➡️ ​Dr. Kobi Barda, a historian specializing in American politics, has issued a stark warning that critical strains on US military stockpiles could leave Washington severely vulnerable if China enters a major conflict. Pointing to the intense weapons consumption in the Ukrainian war, he cited US media reports indicating that it will take at least four years to replenish depleted stockpiles of key assets including Tomahawk cruise missiles and advanced air defense systems.

➡️ ​Barda also highlighted how economic dependency on foreign entities is complicating defense efforts across Europe, using Germany’s industrial sector as a prime example. Volkswagen, already struggling against a flood of Chinese vehicles in its domestic market, was blocked from converting production lines into manufacturing heavy trucks designed to carry military missiles because Qatar, a major shareholder, stopped the integration with Israeli technology companies.

➡️ ​Turning to the Middle East, Barda heavily criticized Washington's current foreign policy toward Tehran, describing the administration's willingness to swallow Iranian demands as embarrassing. He argued that the US is desperate to avoid further complications until after the upcoming midterm elections, even as Iran aggressively demands to negotiate affairs surrounding the Strait of Hormuz exclusively with Oman, bypassing third parties.
