The U.S. military has prepared plans for strikes against Iran beginning as early as Wednesday, November 4, following the midterm elections, with three American aircraft carriers positioned in the region, according to The New York Times. U.S. officials say the optimal window for the operation is limited, as one carrier must return to its home port after early November. The timing also coincides with moonless nights, providing the darkness preferred by the U.S. military for conducting strikes.
