Gallant calls on Trump to ‘finish the job’ by striking Iran’s Fordo nuclear site
Former defense minister Yoav Gallant urges US President Donald Trump to “finish the job” by striking Iran’s Fordo underground nuclear facility.
“Israel has moved and continues to move with determination and dispatch. The support of allies, first and foremost the US, has been crucial. Now, with a single exertion of its unmatched military strength, the US can shorten the war, prevent wider escalation and end the principal threat to Middle Eastern stability. It can also send a signal to those other authoritarian powers who have been Iran’s enablers that American deterrence is back,” Gallant writes in an op-ed he co-wrote in The Times British daily.
