Trump Considers Airstrikes, Supplying Bunker-Busters to Israel to Halt Iran's Nuclear Program
Dec 13, 2024, 09:38 AM
President-elect Donald Trump is reportedly considering a range of options to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, including the possibility of preemptive airstrikes on Iran's nuclear facilities or transferring 'bunker-buster' bombs to Israel, according to multiple reports citing sources close to his transition team. Advisers to Trump are concerned that economic sanctions and diplomatic efforts are insufficient to contain Iran's nuclear ambitions and are evaluating more aggressive measures, including military action. The Wall Street Journal reported that the military-strike option is now under serious review, marking a potential shift from longstanding U.S. policy of using diplomacy and sanctions to deter Iran's nuclear program. Trump has also reportedly expressed concern to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that Iran might achieve nuclear capability during his term. This development comes amid rising tensions over Iran's nuclear activities and regional behavior.
