Washington, D.C. – Former U.S. President Donald Trump is reportedly taking a cautious stance on launching a military strike against Iran, expressing concerns over potentially dragging the United States into another prolonged conflict, according to a report by Axios.
Sources familiar with Trump’s thinking say he is weighing whether such an attack is truly necessary and whether it would effectively neutralize Iran’s nuclear program without escalating into a wider war.
A key consideration, according to the report, is the use of America’s powerful bunker-buster bombs—ordnance that has never been deployed in actual combat. These weapons are believed to be among the few capable of targeting Iran’s heavily fortified nuclear sites.
Trump is said to be demanding assurance that any action taken would achieve its objective swiftly and decisively.
The development comes amid rising tensions in the Middle East, as international actors monitor the situation closely for signs of possible escalation.
