Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump claimed during a campaign rally in North Carolina that Israel should attack Iran's nuclear facilities. "That's the first thing you want to hit. The answer should be: Hit the nuclear first, worry about the rest later," said the former president in response to US President Joe Biden's statement that he does not support striking Iran's nuclear facilities.

These remarks came after a senior US State Department official told CNN that Israel had not provided any guarantees that a strike on Iran's nuclear facilities, in response to the Iranian missile attacks on Israel, was off the table.

"We hope and expect to see some wisdom as well as strength," said the official regarding the possibility of an Israeli strike on Iran's nuclear sites, adding, "but as you know, no guarantees."

Earlier this week, US President Joe Biden stated that he plans to impose sanctions on Tehran and noted that he does not support striking the nuclear facilities. In addition, US Deputy Secretary of State Kurt Campbell told Reuters that not only is Israel considering responding to Iran's attack, but the US as well.

These statements underscores America's deep involvement in the current crisis, and its willingness to act alongside Israel against Iran.
