CNN: Trump administration warns Congress Iran could retaliate against US 'within weeks'
Washington (CNN)The Trump administration has warned members of Congress that Iran is expected to retaliate against the US "within weeks" for the strike that killed Qasem Soleimani even as they failed to convince some that the operation was merited due to an imminent threat against American lives.

Who are ruling through strength are also who fear strength. Even we are in an uncharted territory, Iran is now also in the same situation.
