President Donald Trump stated in an interview with Israel's N12 that he is considering a massive attack on Iran, larger than anything before, and is close to making a decision. The quote adds to a series of statements from the same interview reported Thursday evening.
President Donald Trump said in an interview with Israel's N12 channel that he is considering a massive attack on Iran, larger than anything ever done, and is close to making a decision. The direct quote, reported Thursday at 18:49 Jerusalem, is the latest in a series of statements from the same interview.
As The Zioneer reported earlier Thursday, Trump initially told journalist Barak Ravid (N12) at 18:24 that he is considering a 'massive attack' on Iran. By 18:42, he stated that Israel would join if he orders such an attack, and at 18:46 he said he plans to launch the largest attack ever. The new quote reinforces the president's stated readiness to escalate.
No specific targets, timing, or operational details have been disclosed. The interview, conducted by Barak Ravid, is the primary source for these statements. The remarks follow a pattern of escalating rhetoric from Trump regarding Iran, as The Zioneer has previously noted in the context of ongoing U.S. military operations.
