President Donald Trump is giving fragile U.S.-Iran diplomacy \u201csome space\u201d before deciding whether to resume strikes, United Nations Ambassador Mike Waltz said Sunday. <\/p>\n

Hours later, however, Trump posted images to social media depicting the U.S. attacking Iran.<\/p>\n

Waltz also dismissed concerns over the United States\u2019 diminished munitions stockpiles, even as he conceded that \u201ca lot\u201d of weapons have been depleted, which he said was because of the Russia-Ukraine war and fighting with the Houthis.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to be crystal clear: The U.S. military \u2014 and I\u2019ve verified this every which way \u2014 has everything that it needs to conduct this campaign as effectively as it needs to be,\u201d Waltz told NBC\u2019s \u201cMeet the Press.\u201d<\/p>\n

Waltz\u2019s comments came on the second consecutive day of paused fighting between the United Sates and Iran amid reports of a dwindled U.S. stockpile of Patriot antimissile interceptors, among other munitions. <\/p>\n

The New York Times reported Sunday that the depletion of interceptor stockpiles is among the reasons why the administration is wary of resuming major combat operations in a war launched without congressional authorization and which has grown exceedingly unpopular.<\/p>\n

But Waltz underscored that the pause in fighting is to allow for an opportunity for peace \u2014 not because of an insufficient weapons supply, and warned that those leaking information to the press about the U.S. not having sufficient weaponry \u201cdeserve to be in jail.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat the president is doing right now, as we\u2019ve seen all along, is giving some talks some space. Talks are ongoing,\u201d Waltz told NBC. \u201cThey\u2019re happening at every level, from the more technical aspect of it all the way to the highest levels, of course, within both the Iranian government and the U.S. government.\u201d<\/p>\n

He reiterated in an appearance on CBS News\u2019 \u201cFace the Nation\u201d that Trump \u201cis giving diplomacy a chance.\u201d<\/p>\n

But even after Waltz publicly touted giving peace a chance, Trump posted several AI-generated images on Truth Social Sunday afternoon depicting the U.S. striking Kharg Island. In one image, Trump is standing on the deck of an Iranian oil tanker with an American flag in hand.<\/p>\n

Trump met with top aides on Friday to weigh escalating military action against Iran, according to a senior White House official. On Saturday, the president told a French journalist that he is \u201cabsolutely\u201d considering resuming full-scale war with Iran if the U.S. doesn\u2019t \u201cget 100% of what we want.\u201d<\/p>\n

Waltz declined to give a timeline for when the war would end.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday that if Iran plays any role in attacking Israel, it would be making a \u201cterrible mistake\u201d and that the response would be \u201cvery forceful.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIf Iran attacks Israel \u2013 either directly or through proxies, either with ballistic missiles or UAV [Unmanned Aerial Vehicles]\u2019s or killer drones \u2014 it will make a terrible mistake,\u201d he said on Fox News\u2019s \u201cSunday Morning Futures.\u201d\u201cBecause our response, Israel\u2019s response, will be very, very forceful.\u201d<\/p>\n

Netanyahu, who launched the war with Iran jointly with Trump on Feb. 28, is set to meet with his U.S. counterpart at the White House on Tuesday, the same day he\u2019s scheduled to attend the funeral of the late Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C.<\/p>\n
