WSJ: Trump Weighing Military Operation to Remove ~1,000 lbs of Uranium from Iran

The Wall Street Journal, citing American officials, reports that President Donald Trump is considering a military operation to remove nearly 1,000 pounds of uranium from Iran. According to the newspaper, such a mission would likely require American forces to be present inside Iranian territory for several days or even longer. Officials said Trump has not yet made a decision on issuing the order and is weighing potential risks to American soldiers. However, according to sources, the US president is generally favorable to the idea, as this action could help achieve his main goal of permanently preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons.
