Trump cant admit Iran was a mistake: James OBrien

'How many American lives will Donald Trump sacrifice for his ego?' asks James O'Brien.

It comes as Donald Trump is considering deploying up to 10,000 more troops to the Middle East as peace negotiations continue with Iran.

The US is reportedly considering a massive troop deployment that would include ‘infantry and armoured vehicles,’ according to the Wall Street Journal.

It is being presented as another option for Trump as he seeks peace talks with Iran.

The troops would likely sent to a US military base within striking distance of Iran’s Kharg island.

Around 5,000 US Marines and several thousand paratroopers from the 82nd Airborne Division are already making their way to the Middle East.

White House spokeswoman Anna Kelly said that no decision had been made yet.
