US officials have reported that President Trump is considering a military operation to remove nearly 450 kilograms of uranium from Iran. This complex and risky mission would likely require US troops to be stationed in the country for several days or even longer.

“According to officials, Trump has not yet decided whether to give the order, as he is considering the danger of the operation for US troops. However, the US president remains open to the idea in general, as it could help achieve his main goal of preventing Iran from developing nuclear weapons," according to the Wall Street Journal.

    It really does feel like the US and Israel desire them to do so, which is why we are where we are. I hope Iran remains rational on the subject but the US loves to generationally fuck over countries with ground invasion for oil or to help build terrorist networks that then become their sworn enemy.
