US President Trump: “I'm considering a massive attack greater than anything before”

US President Donald Trump said he is close to deciding whether to launch a new military operation against Iran, according to Israel’s N12. Trump said he is “considering a massive attack greater than anything before,” adding that Israel would join the operation “within two minutes” if requested. However, he stressed that the United States (US) would not need assistance to carry out the attack.

Meanwhile, two regional sources familiar with mediation efforts said Iran’s leadership had not accepted the latest proposal presented by intermediaries.

Key quotes:

I’m considering a massive attack greater than anything before. I’m close to making a decision.

Israel would join in two minutes if I ask them to.

We don’t need anybody.

They want to negotiate, but they are not ready to make a deal.

They haven’t received enough pain yet.

We are trying, but the Iranians are not being helpful."
