President Donald Trump revealed a major decision he is considering regarding the conflict with Iran during his Sept. 22 address to the U.N. General Assembly.
In his speech, Trump reiterated his administration’s position that Iran cannot be allowed to obtain a nuclear weapon and outlined how the U.S. military has targeted Iran’s navy, missile capabilities, and nuclear development.
“But now I have a big decision to make: Will a deal be made with Iran that lets them rebuild and create a far greater country than it ever was before, maybe one of the greatest in the Middle East or even the world?” Trump said on Sept. 22.
“Or do I annihilate the Islamic Republic and do it quickly, never giving them a chance to kill and destroy people and countries again? Do I drive them into hell with no chance of survival and no hope of future greatness or generations?”
The president detailed the two options he is considering as the Iranian delegation at the U.N. watched his speech on Sept. 22.
Trump told the U.N. that he believes the United States and Iran will make a deal shortly after the upcoming midterm election.

In before...
Again
Deal or get blown up. 36.0
It scares the neighbors more than it scares Iran. They gotta live with them.
I have been waiting since 2025 for him to follow through on this promise instead of TACO. He is the opposite of speak softly and carry a big stick.
It is time to stop playing small ball. Take out kharg island and tell them what will be next. Perhaps send seal team 6 to take out some of the leadership as we did in venezuela (seemed to have no trouble rescuing our pilots).
Also time to torch the houthis.
Iranian Mullahs should make a deal. They will give up if they are guaranteed a piece of the Kalifornia Grift/Graft Complex.
Is it SOP for them going into battle with their mags taped to the rifle?
Make a deal with who?
There is nobody to make a deal with.
Sign it today with the Iranian “officials” and tomorrow the IRGC is just trying to blow it all up. That is all these psychopaths want to do. They just want to watch the World burn.
Declare victory, keep the straight open and let the Mossad kill every last one of these trucks.
Why is he giving them any breaks in the assault on Iran? Is it to give the respective MICs the continual gravy train of money? To let them reload? What is it.
You cannot negotiate with terrorists! That’s what they are, sadly the children will grow up with the same ideology. It’s best to eliminate the threat once and for all.
Militia sponsored by the local Tehran Visionworks...
LOL!
Was he banging his shoe on the podium?
Trump is not a diplomat. Even if the terrorists in Iran cannot be dealt with diplomatically, a deal at the point of a gun normally doesn’t work. It’s the kind of stuff that the Mafia was/is known for.
Before what?
He’s not. He’s pantomiming for the UN.
You can make those decisions and many more when you are President.
I bvote go weith the annilation, because they are not serious at all. This is how they fight. They just keep butying time with promises that they have no intention of honoring.
Why do some of the jihadists have their magazines scotch taped
to the receivers? Don’t they know that this is going to really
screw up the ejector port? These gals are good for one shot only.
Then they’re toast.
