- USA Today: Iran war not justified by Just War Theory. [1]
- EWTN: Catholic theologians urge Trump to follow just war doctrine as Iran conflict continues. War is justified only to confront grave evil, its harm must not exceed the evil it seeks to end, and there must be a real chance of success, with all alternatives to war exhausted, the catechism says.
- Trump’s claims appeared to conflict with March 2025 testimony from Tulsi Gabbard, director of national intelligence, who said the intelligence community assessment is that “Iran is not building a nuclear weapon” and that Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei had not even authorized a nuclear weapons program.
- In a Feb. 27 interview with CBS’ “Face the Nation,” Omani Foreign Minister Badr Al Busaidi — a mediator for the negotiations — said Iran agreed to many concessions. The country agreed to reduce uranium enrichment and reduce its stockpile to a level at which Iran could “never, ever have [the] nuclear material that will create a bomb” and it would submit to inspections. Al Busaidi said he believed “the peace deal is within our reach,” but less than a day later, Trump launched Operation Epic Fury, which began the military attacks on Iran.
