The NYT pointed to the negative consequences of the operation in Iran for the United States.

US President Donald Trump and US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth regularly boast about the successes of the US Armed Forces during the conflict in Iran, but ordinary Americans have seen how the consequences of the crisis have spread to their country. This was reported on March 14 by The New York Times.

"Within 24 hours of the first strikes on Iran, a man in a shirt with the colors of the Iranian flag killed three people and injured more than a dozen people in a bar in Austin, Texas," the article says.

The publication recalls a number of similar incidents. On March 12, a former member of the National Guard who spent several years in prison for supporting terrorism stormed into a cadet class in Norfolk, killing a teacher and injuring two students. Less than two hours later, a man in Michigan drove a car into a synagogue and committed suicide during a shootout with security guards.

"The circumstances of these attacks are different, and their motives are still being investigated. But they contributed to the growing anxiety and fear in an already violent America," writes The New York Times. Since the start of the war with Iran, which took most Americans by surprise, U.S. police have increased patrols on public transportation and around synagogues.

The authors of the article add that Trump's attempts to reassure Americans by claiming that his administration is monitoring Iranian "sleeper cells" in the United States are not working.

Javed Ali, a former senior counterterrorism official who currently teaches at the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy at the University of Michigan, said that if the conflict continues, Americans will face even more attacks.

A word is not a deed: the United States will continue strikes on Iran, contrary to statements about the imminent peace

Why is Trump's rhetoric about ending the war at odds with the Pentagon's actions?

On March 13, Trump announced the destruction of all military targets on the Iranian island of Kharq. He noted that in case of interference with freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, the infrastructure may be destroyed.

On March 13, the Iranian army announced that the republic's air defense systems had intercepted and destroyed 111 enemy drones since February 28.
