Is Trump Ready for War with Iran? + Other Headlines

Huckabee: Trump Won’t Allow Iran to Have Nukes

At a policy summit in Jerusalem yesterday, Mike Huckabee, the U.S. Ambassador to Israel, made a powerful statement about the Trump administration and its position on Iran’s nuclear program: If Iran refuses to give up its nuclear ambitions, President Trump would not be “dragged into” a war. Instead, he would “lead it.”

Huckabee said Trump has been explicit that “there will never be a possibility for nuclear weapons” in Iran—at least, not with Trump in office.

Is the administration really prepared to go to war with Iran? Or is this just bluster from the White House?
