Trump Threatens Iran With 'Bombing' as Nuclear Negotiations Fizzle

President Donald Trump has threatened Iran with ‘bombing’ if the latter refuses to negotiate limitations to their nuclear development programs. 

President Trump told reporters that if the Iranians “don't make a deal, there will be bombing."

The bombing threats follow increased diplomatic confrontations between the US and Iran. 

Trump’s administration has kickstarted a ‘maximum pressure’ campaign to nix Iran’s nefarious conduct, which the US believes threatens international security. 

Since taking office, Trump has imposed sundry sanctions on Iran and its proxies as well as applied financial and diplomatic pressure by threatening more action if Iran does not agree to ceasing its nuclear weapons development program and supporting international terrorism.

Trump further warned there “will be bombing the likes of which they have never seen before."

Iran however, seemed undeterred, as Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei said Iran would respond to any forceful US action in kind. 

“The US and the Zionist regime threaten to commit vicious acts,” said Ayatollah Khamenei. “Of course, if such vicious acts are committed, they will definitely receive a strong, reciprocal blow.”

Iran Watch, an organization devoted to exposing Iran’s weapons development programs, recently reported Iran is dangerously close to obtaining nuclear weapons. 

Iran Watch claimed Iran has “accomplished over 90% of the work needed to bring natural uranium to weapon-grade.”

“With its thousands of gas centrifuges in operation and thousands of kilograms of enriched uranium in its stockpile, Iran can now quickly enrich uranium to a grade suitable for nuclear weapons,” warned Iran Watch. 

Trump and allies worry that Iran’s government, given its fundamentalist Islamic beliefs, would leverage nuclear weapons to persecute non-Muslims, support its ‘axis-of-evil’ terrorist proxies, and further destabilize the Middle East. 

Iran’s network of Islamic terrorist groups throughout the Middle East includes groups such as Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis, and ISIS.
