US will hit potential site of Iranian nuclear centrifuges ‘very heavily’

Trump has told reporters that the US will be hitting the area where Iran’s nuclear centrifuges are rumoured to be “soon”.

“We’ll be hitting that area very, probably pretty soon, and there’s not a thing they can do about it,” he said in response to a question about whether Iran has moved its centrifuges to Pickaxe Mountain in the Natanz area.

“Normally I wouldn’t say that,” he added, “If I thought they could do something about it, I would never say that, but we’ll be hitting that area pretty soon, and, and very heavily.”

There was this article published in WSJ around 6 days ago about the US striking Pickaxe mountain. I think that was the earliest report. WSJ linked in the thread below.

Today Trump met with the President of Lebanon Joseph Aoun at the White House. He's pro-Israel and pro-US. Aoun is basically telling Israel that they can occupy 20% of Lebanon. Hezbollah, which is a political party and military in Lebanon, is not okay with Israel stealing the homes of Lebanese people.

A reporter asks Trump about plans to attack Pickaxe Mountain. Trump gets snappy and says that people shouldn't know where the US plans to attack. Then he says that the US will attack Iran's "nuclear centrifuges" very soon.

New WSJ article says that the attack that Trump wants to do is based on Israeli intelligence, rather than US intelligence.
