In a series of bold statements, U.S. President Donald Trump declared unprecedented support for Israel, confirming that his administration had prior knowledge of recent Israel strikes on Iran.
Israel Strikes on Iran targeted Iranian nuclear sites, ballistic missile factories, and top military leaders, marking a significant escalation in regional tensions.
Trump: “We support Israel like no one has before.”
Speaking to CNN, Trump said, “We support Israel like no one has before,” and warned Iran that it must reach a nuclear agreement before it’s too late.
In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Trump revealed his team was well aware of Israel’s plans to strike Iran.
“We knew what was happening,” he said, downplaying the idea that Israel formally notified the U.S.
“It wasn’t notification—it was awareness.”
He added that he had spoken with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and planned to speak with him again soon.
Trump Talking About Israel Strikes on Iran “They got hit hard—very hard.”
Calling the operation “highly successful—if not modestly described,” Trump told ABC News that Israel Strikes on Iran were “excellent” and hinted at further actions: “They got hit hard—very hard.
There’s much more to come.”
On his Truth Social platform, Trump urged Iran to strike a nuclear deal before losing everything, warning, “It’s time to end this.
Death and destruction have already happened, but it’s not too late to stop the slaughter.”
He emphasized that Israel is well-equipped with the world’s most advanced military technology—much of it supplied by the U.S.
Iran Was Give 60-days to Return to Negotiations.
In a sharp tone, Trump stated that Iran’s hardliners underestimated the consequences:
“They had no idea what was coming.
They’re all gone now—and the worst is yet to come.”
As Israel launched its military campaign early Friday, it claimed the action was to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons.
The U.S. had previously granted Iran a 60-day window to return to negotiations, but Trump now says that Iran has a “second chance.”
Trump Was Briefed About Israel Strikes on Iran In Advance
Fox News confirmed Trump was briefed on Israel’s actions in advance.
During an interview, he reiterated, “Iran cannot be allowed to possess a nuclear weapon.”
A round of nuclear negotiations was scheduled for Sunday in Muscat, Oman.
Despite the escalating violence, a U.S. official told Agence France-Presse that talks with Iran are still expected to proceed.
The Biden administration has attempted to distance the U.S. from Israel’s unilateral action, which may complicate diplomatic efforts.
Tensions Remain High
Senator Marco Rubio, a top Trump ally and national security adviser, emphasized that the U.S. did not participate in the strikes: “Our top priority remains the protection of American troops in the region.
Israel informed us they believed the action was necessary for self-defense.”
Tensions remain high as Trump balances military threats with diplomacy.
While Israel insists the strikes are necessary to prevent nuclear proliferation, Iran maintains that its nuclear program is strictly for peaceful purposes.
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) recently confirmed Iran’s noncompliance with nonproliferation commitments—its first such violation in nearly two decades.
Despite the Fact that Israel Strikes on Iran Were Successful, A Rift is Growing Between Trump and Netanyahu
A rift appears to be growing between Trump and Netanyahu, particularly over how to handle Iran and the ongoing conflict in Gaza.
Trump has pushed for accelerated humanitarian aid to Gaza and a diplomatic path with Tehran, while Israel continues its military approach.
Will Israel Strikes on Iran Have Another Round?
As concerns rise about the safety of U.S. personnel in the region, Trump warned that evacuations may be necessary: “This could become a very dangerous place.”
Both Tehran and Washington announced plans to resume talks this Sunday between U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.
However, it remains uncertain if the meeting will proceed as scheduled.
