US-Iran tensions rise as military power is compared across air, naval, missile and manpower strength in a potential full-scale war scenario.

The Trump administration has repeatedly said the U.S. should be in control of Greenland, which is part of Denmark and NATO.

American power looks weaker because it is no longer theatrical, but it is still shaping outcomes through pressure and alliances while rivals burn men, money, and legitimacy trying to fight the modern world and their own limits.

The president and his national security advisers contemplated striking Iran but backed away as costs loomed and Middle East allies lobbied for restraint.

Donald Trump has warned Iran that “time is running out” to make a deal and that the “next attack” by US forces will be “far worse” than previous strikes. In a post on Truth Social, the US President warned that a “massive armada” was on its way to the country in preparation for possible military action.
