National Security

A nuclear-armed Iran poses an existential threat to regional stability and U.S. allies like Israel, demanding decisive action to neutralize the danger.

Deterrence First

Presidential Duty

President Trump has a constitutional duty to protect the U.S. from threats, and failing to prevent a nuclear Iran would be a dereliction of that duty.

Diplomatic Paths

International diplomacy and a renewed, verifiable nuclear agreement offer the most effective means to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons without resorting to war.

Avoid Costly Wars

Unilateral military action risks prolonged conflict, loss of American lives, and immense financial cost, often without guaranteeing a lasting solution to the problem.

Regional Stability

Escalating military tensions could further destabilize the Middle East, leading to wider conflicts and humanitarian crises that ultimately undermine U.S. interests.
