President Donald Trump is sending mixed messages about the U.S. war with Iran, and that's raising even more questions about the direction of the conflict and his administration's strategy. Trump says he's considering winding down the war and suggesting other countries could police the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz. Yet also on Friday, administration officials said the United States was sending more warships and about 2,500 more Marines to the Middle East. And the U.S. is easing sanctions on some Iranian oil that's already at sea, in a move aimed at lowering energy prices. The war remains on an unpredictable path and a credible endgame is unclear.
