The recent actions of the Trump administration regarding Israel's strike on Iran have sparked discussions from various quarters.

The U.S. under Trump's leadership effectively permitted Israel's military action against Iran, prompted by concerns over Iran's nuclear capabilities, as Breitbart reports, and one top Democrat is praising it as the right thing to do.

During an appearance on the Fox News Channel's program Jesse Watters Primetime, Rep. Jared Moskowitz expressed support for Trump's decision to allow Israel's strike against Iran to move forward.

Trump's quiet green light

The United States, under Trump, had some level of awareness of Israel's intentions to target Iran due to the growing concerns surrounding its nuclear capabilities, Moskowitz explains. It is noted that the U.S. might have been in a position to halt the actions taken by Israel if it chose to do so.

Moskowitz, despite his disagreements with Trump, acknowledged that the decision to let the strike go forward was the right one. This comes as intelligence reported Iran was nearing the development of a nuclear weapon, a red line that the U.S. had consistently opposed across multiple administrations.

Iranian nuclear program in the balance

The situation with Iran's nuclear ambitions has been a point of concern across various administrations, as noted by Moskowitz.

There had been continuous efforts to delay Iran's ability to acquire a nuclear weapon, leading to numerous rounds of negotiations between the U.S. and Iran.

Over time, the United States engaged Iran in five rounds of diplomatic talks, aimed at averting a potential conflict and halting Iran’s nuclear advancement.

Iran's leadership under scrutiny

The Iranian Supreme Leader's mental state and motivations were highlighted by Moskowitz as crucial factors in Iran's unwillingness to alter its course.

It is thought that the Supreme Leader, at 86 years of age, is experiencing a decline in mental faculties, which might have influenced his decision-making.

Despite the series of negotiations, the Iranian regime is said to have ultimately chosen the path that led to military engagement.

Moving forward against Tehran

Trump, consistent with the stance of previous U.S. presidents, communicated a clear opposition to Iran developing a nuclear arsenal.

He provided Iran with 60 days' time and engaged in five negotiation rounds to reach a diplomatic resolution, which, unfortunately, did not yield the desired outcome.

This led to Trump's decision to allow Israel to begin actions aimed at dismantling Iran's nuclear program.

Moskowitz expresses support

In his statements, Moskowitz admitted to his disagreements with some of the administration's proposals, particularly concerning low-level enrichment allowances.

However, he agreed with the strategic choice made by Trump under the circumstances.

The approval of the Israeli strike is portrayed as a necessary measure after Iran rejected the negotiations and refused to dismantle its nuclear endeavors.

Moskowitz underscored that the final decision, while tough, aligned with longstanding U.S. policy to prevent Iran from achieving nuclear weapon capabilities.
