Trump Weighs Strikes After Situation Room Showdown
President Donald Trump may be on the verge of launching the United States into war with Iran. According to CBS and other outlets, Trump met with top generals and national security officials in the Situation Room to assess U.S. military options — including direct airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities.
The most sensitive target under discussion: Fordow, Iran’s deeply buried and heavily fortified enrichment site, long believed to be off-limits to all but the most advanced bunker-busting U.S. weapons.
An insider told CBS the president is actively weighing whether to join Israel’s ongoing military campaign and escalate the confrontation into a U.S.-Iran war.
“UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER” – Trump’s Stark Ultimatum
In a Truth Social post earlier Tuesday, Trump demanded Iran’s “UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER” as fighting between Israel and Iran entered its fifth day. The comment marked a dramatic shift in tone — and suggested Trump may be done with diplomatic restraint.
He also issued a personal threat to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
“We know exactly where the so-called Supreme Leader is hiding,” Trump wrote.
“He is an easy target… but we are not going to take him out — at least not for now.”
He added that U.S. patience is “wearing thin,” warning Iran to stop firing missiles at civilians and American troops.
B-52 Bombers Ready To Strike
As Trump entered the Situation Room, military sources confirmed that four U.S. B-52 Stratofortress nuclear-capable bombers are now positioned at Diego Garcia — a key U.S. base in the Indian Ocean that puts Iran well within range.
These bombers are capable of carrying bunker-busting weapons, potentially making them the lead force if the U.S. greenlights a strike on Fordow or other deep nuclear sites.
Military analysts note the presence of B-52s near Iran is rare — and almost always signals serious intent.
Israel Warns Of Shocking New Offensive
While the U.S. weighs its next move, Israel’s rhetoric is heating up. The country’s ambassador to the U.S., Yechiel Leiter, teased a powerful upcoming operation, claiming it will make the infamous Mossad “exploding pager” plot look simple by comparison.
“You’re going to see some surprises on Thursday night and Friday,” he said in an interview with Merit TV.
“We’ve pulled off a number of surprises. There’s still a lot we can do.”
Meanwhile, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz warned Khamenei that he may face “a fate similar to Saddam Hussein.” The message was clear: Iran’s top leadership is now in the crosshairs.
Global Consequences Build
Tensions continue to skyrocket. The UK has urged restraint, calling for a diplomatic solution while confirming that British forces are on high alert in the region. Yet with missiles flying, red lines blurring, and two nuclear-capable militaries poised for escalation, the window for peace is shrinking fast.
Inside Tehran, civilians reportedly are preparing for the worst. With threats raining down from both Washington and Tel Aviv, fears of a full-blown regional war are growing by the hour.
The Biggest Decision Of Trump’s Presidency?
Trump has long promised to keep the U.S. out of “endless wars,” but the current crisis could force his hand. Sources say the White House is split between those urging surgical strikes and others warning against dragging the country into a direct war with Iran.
As Trump entered the Situation Room late Tuesday, a Fox News reporter described the atmosphere as “tense, quiet, and decisive.” One official called it the most serious war discussion since the Soleimani strike in 2020.
Now, all eyes are on Trump. Will he pull the trigger — or stand down?
With B-52s in the sky and Khamenei marked as a potential target, the world may soon find out.
