The Middle East is on fire. Each new escalation brings more death, destruction and instability to an already devastated region. Now Yemen's Houthis have declared a naval blockade of Saudi Arabia, opening yet another dangerous front, while the United States has bombed Iran for a tenth consecutive night.
Wars have a way of expanding beyond anyone's control. Every new attack increases the risk of a wider regional conflict that could draw in more nations and inflict even greater suffering on civilians.
One man helped set this dangerous course in motion, and that same man has the power to change it. President Donald Trump should immediately halt further military escalation, pursue an urgent ceasefire and return to diplomacy. Real leadership is measured not by the ability to wage war, but by the courage to prevent it.
The people of the Middle East—and the world—deserve peace, not another endless war.
