PM, Trump said to discuss US support for potential Israeli strike on Iran nuclear sites

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump have discussed a variety of ways in which the US could support Israel in a potential attack on Iran’s nuclear program, the Washington Post reported Friday, amid a series of indications that Jerusalem could be planning a strike in the coming months in a bid to take down Tehran’s regime.

Citing Israeli and US officials, senior Washington Post columnist David Ignatius asserted that unless diplomatic pressure forces Iran to abandon its nuclear facilities, Israel is prepared to destroy them “with or without US support.”

“Israel wants to seize the moment,” Ignatius wrote, citing American and Israeli officials: “If Iran won’t agree to a Libya-style abandonment of its nuclear facilities, Israel is prepared to bomb those facilities — with or without US support, the officials said.”

Trump seeks deal with Iran, denies US and Israel planning strike on nuclear facilities​


U.S. President Donald Trump on Wednesday denied that Washington and Jerusalem were planning a military strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities. However, the president emphasized that he would not permit the Iranian ayatollah regime to acquire a nuclear weapon.

“I want Iran to be a great and successful Country, but one that cannot have a Nuclear Weapon. Reports that the United States, working in conjunction with Israel, is going to blow Iran into smithereens, ARE GREATLY EXAGGERATED,” Trump stated in a post on his Truth Social platform.

While keeping all options on the table, Trump stressed that he prefers a diplomatic solution and a workable deal to solve the Iranian nuclear crisis.

“I would much prefer a Verified Nuclear Peace Agreement, which will let Iran peacefully grow and prosper,” he wrote. “We should start working on it immediately, and have a big Middle East Celebration when it is signed and completed. God Bless the Middle East!” he added.

Trump’s statement came as the president signed several executive orders, including one that demands “maximum pressure” on the Iranian regime to give up its ambitions to acquire nuclear weapons and to stop financing terrorism in the Middle East and elsewhere.
