US and Israel consider options on Iran, “We have to prepare for a world where Iran doesn’t have constraints on nuclear program”

The United States and Israel have announced they are considering alternative options for dealing with Iran in the event the Islamic regime refuses to return to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) nuclear deal and comply with the limits on uranium enrichment set out in the 2015 agreement, AP reports. After former president Donald Trump withdrew from the JCPOA in 2018 and reimposed sanctions on Iran, the Islamic regime began enriching uranium to levels exceedingly far above the amount agreed to in the deal.

US to rejoin UN Human Rights Council following Trump withdrawal
