'Enough is enough': Senators urge 'panicked' Trump to end aggression on Iran
Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer and Senator Chris Muphy of Connecticut have urged US President Donald Trump to end aggression on Iran as he has lost control of the situation.
In a post published on social media platform X on Sunday, Schumer wrote, “Even some Republican senators are openly admitting they have no clue what the administration is trying to accomplish in the Middle East.”
Schumer concluded his post, saying, “Enough is enough” and demanding that Trump should “end this war.”
Commenting on Trump’s threat to destroy Iran’s infrastructure if Tehran does open the Strait of Hormuz within 48 hours, Murphy wrote on X on Monday, “He has lost control of this war and he is panicking.”
Murphy predicted that as long as Trump continues to align itself with Israel and continues the aggression against Iran, the Strait of Hormuz will remain closed, and the price of oil will skyrocket even further.
“He has created a historic mess that is hurting Americans,” he noted.
The US and Israeli armed forces began their military aggression against Iran in late February by attacking 30 targets across Tehran, killing several senior Iranian officials, including the former Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei.

Since then, Iranian armed forces have swiftly and decisively retaliated against the strikes by launching barrages of missile and drones against Israeli-occupied territories as well as on US bases in the region.
Iranian officials have stated that targeting US military bases in the region constitutes “legitimate self-defense.”
Referring to Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations, they say that Iran has the legal right to defend itself against “acts of aggression” by the US or the Israeli regime.
