Brett McGurk, former White House Coordinator for the Middle East, discussed the imminent possibility of a U.S. military strike on Iran’s Fordow nuclear site during a CNN segment. He highlighted the military preparations currently underway and noted the urgency of the situation, especially after an expectation set by President Biden of an 'unconditional surrender' from Iran. McGurk anticipates that crucial military assets, such as a U.S. carrier strike group, will need to be in position before any strike occurs. Meanwhile, he emphasized the need for potential diplomatic solutions before resorting to military action.
I think we are gearing up for a strike, I think, on the Fordow facility, which we've been talking about all week.
What I can see is that the military maneuvers are getting in place...the president said unconditional surrender, that just leaves very little room for diplomacy.
You want to get that in place. I would try to use that time to see if Iran is prepared to take a diplomatic off-ramp.
While Israel has confronted nuclear threats before, it lacks the bunker-busting capability to neutralize Fordow. That responsibility now falls to the United States.
