Trump Suggests Bombing Iran Without Nuclear Deal (Video)

WASHINGTON/TEHRAN (Worthy News) – U.S. President Donald J. Trump threatened to “bomb the hell out of” Iran if the Islamic Republic continues a nuclear program that he suggested is aimed at developing a nuclear weapon.

In comments to the Fox News Channel aired Monday, Trump said he would prefer to make a deal with Tehran to avoid air strikes.

“Everyone thinks Israel, with our help or our approval, will go in and bomb the hell out of them [Iran]. I would prefer that not happening. I would much rather see a deal with Iran… Supervised, check it, inspect it [the nuclear facilities], and then blow it up or just make sure that there’s no more nuclear there,” he stressed.

[U.S. President Barrack Obama’s nuclear deal] was the dumbest… By the way, it would’ve expired by now. That was a road [for Iran] to a nuclear weapon,” Trump said.

“It was a short-term deal… It would have already expired by now, and they would have a legal right to have a nuclear weapon,” he added.

Trump noted that Iran “is very concerned” amid mounting pressure from the U.S. and Israel. “I think Iran is very frightened, to be honest with you. Their air defense is pretty much gone.,” he said, referring to recent U.S.-backed Israeli strikes.

“I think Iran is very nervous; I think they’re scared. I think Iran would love to make a deal, and I would love to make a deal with them without bombing them,” explained Trump, who co-authored the 1987 best seller “Trump: The Art of the Deal.”
