Republican White House hopeful Donald Trump says he believes Israel should strike Iran’s nuclear facilities in response to the Islamic Republic’s recent missile barrage.

The former president, speaking at a campaign event in North Carolina, refers to a question posed to Democratic President Joe Biden this week about the possibility of Israel targeting Iran’s nuclear program.

“They asked him, what do you think about Iran, would you hit Iran? And he goes, ‘As long as they don’t hit the nuclear stuff.’ That’s the thing you want to hit, right?” Trump tells a town hall style event in Fayetteville, near a major US military base.

“I think he’s got that one wrong,” Trump says, in response to a participant’s question about the issue. “Isn’t that what you’re supposed to hit? I mean, it’s the biggest risk we have, nuclear weapons.

“When they asked him that question, the answer should have been, hit the nuclear first, and worry about the rest later,” Trump adds.

“If they’re going to do it, they’re going to do it. But we’ll find out whatever their plans are.”

No.

[central_va]

Yes

[roving]

Yes. Make Jeremiah 49 a reality.

After Jeremiah, do Ezekiel 38. Let’s get this ball rolling.

Absolutely! Hit the nuclear research centers, the centrifuges, the storage sites - and do it during working hours, so they kill as many of the technicians and scientists as possible.

The Mullahs decided to fire ballistic missiles at Israel: it's time to use the deep ground penetrators and finish off their nuclear weapons program - before they will be able to use them on us.

Obama wanted them to have a nuclear capability. Strap him and Valerie Jarret to the first bunker buster.

No.

President Trump is right!

Eliminate the entire Iranian nuclear capability — EVERYTHING & EVERYBODY!

[StolarStorm]

Take out the leadership and their goons and let the Iranian moderates take care of the rest. They do exist.

[Cobra64]

Yes. Get it over with. This crap has been going on for decades. Since Viet Nam, all we do is tease our enemies. Decades of appeasement is pathetic.

[Cobra64]

Yup. Bury these bastards in the nuke making facilities.

“When they asked him that question, the answer should have been, hit the nuclear first, and worry about the rest later,” Trump adds.

President Trump is correct: Hit 'em where it hurts!

The Iranian overlords are very close to FAFO now.

And this is another example of Trump making ill thought out
choices based on bad advice from those he trusts orto whom he owes favors.

[maddog55]

I think Israel should nuke Iran.

[brooklin]

Clean out the leaders bank accounts, then hit the facilities.

[trebb]

Yes - twit...

[WeaslesRippedMyFlesh]

“orto whom he owes favors.”

Please provide one shred of evidence Trump is corrupt.

That thought only entered your mind because that is how your party works.
