U.S. President Donald Trump stated on Thursday that he might order an immediate military strike against Iran if he concludes that developments are not moving in his desired direction. This statement follows his earlier assertion that the United States does not need an agreement with Iran. In a phone interview with Hugh Hewitt on Salem News, Trump was asked if he would hesitate to use military force against Iran. "If I see things going in the wrong direction, I will do it. I might do it right now. Without hesitation," the President responded.
During the interview, Trump expressed strong support for Israel, saying, "I am very much on Israel's side." These remarks come after he presented a more reserved stance earlier in the week regarding resuming strikes. In a CNN interview, Trump estimated a very low probability of needing to order further military action as long as progress was being made in negotiations with Tehran. However, he clarified then that U.S. forces were prepared to act if required. Now, in the new interview, he does not rule out an immediate strike.
