As tensions rise in the Middle East, the Trump administration works on a diplomatic solution to Iran’s nuclear program as Israel prepares to attack.

President Trump acknowledged on Thursday that there was a significant risk that Israel could soon attack Iran, but he said that “I don’t want them going in” at a moment when progress was being made toward an agreement to shut down Iran’s easiest pathway to building a nuclear weapon.

"As long as I think there is an agreement, I don't want them going in, because I think that would blow it," Trump said of U.S.-Iran negotiations.
