Trump weighs nuclear strike on Iran after Netanyahu pressure, Carlson claims

sudinfo.be (French) —

US President Donald Trump is reportedly considering a nuclear strike on Iran within days, according to commentator Tucker Carlson, under pressure from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, described as "cornered" and "desperate." Carlson claims the operation would target Mount Pickaxe, a site suspected by Israeli intelligence of renewed uranium enrichment, buried hundreds of meters underground and only reachable by nuclear weapon. He says Trump "hesitates" and prefers diplomatic options, per Axios reporting of a tense Saturday call. Trump has publicly stated one or two Iranian sites remain, including Mount Kolang near Natanz, and that action could take "ten minutes." These claims remain unconfirmed, while Iran has welcomed a "tone change" in a letter from Vice President JD Vance.
