Fox News senior strategic analyst Ret. Gen. Jack Keane assesses President Donald Trump’s decision to delay bombing Iran for another two weeks on ‘Jesse Watters Primetime.’

Retired four-star Gen. Jack Keane expressed doubt that the Iran ceasefire will hold, arguing Tehran is exploiting the pause to delay and ease pressure while testing whether the U.S. has “the stomach” to restart the fight.

“I am skeptical about where we’re heading with the Iranians because I flat don’t trust them, and I don’t like taking the pressure off them by going to a ceasefire, which is what they want in any event to force the United States to stop the war,” Keane said Tuesday on “Jesse Watters Primetime.”

 

Ret. Gen. Jack Keane is sounding the alarm as President Trump holds off on bombing Iran for two more weeks, warning the ceasefire may be little more than Tehran buying time. On Fox News, Keane said he does not trust the Iranians, accusing them of using negotiations to “obfuscate and delay” while testing whether the U.S. has the stomach to resume the fight. His message: the pause may ease pressure now, but it could also hand Iran the breathing room it wants most.
