As fallout from the Iran war ripples through Washington, reports suggest senior aides were blindsided by the scale of Tehran’s retaliation across the Gulf. Claims that key officials, including Pete Hegseth, were “caught off guard” raise questions about pre-war intelligence briefings and internal preparedness under Donald Trump. The episode fuels debate over whether warnings of regional blowback were fully weighed before the strikes began.
