Trump's Iran Deal Shift Won't Stop Tehran's Nuclear Ambitions

(NewsNation) Dr. Dan Diker - Dr. Dan Diker, President of the Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs (JCFA), told NewsNation on Monday: "[We are seeing] a continuation of Iranian regime deception warfare....For the Iranian regime itself, diplomacy is an act of war. It is not the pathway to peace. That's the way they operate. That is their DNA." "The Iranian regime is trying to corner Israel by creating a frontal, head-on, fatal collision between Washington and Jerusalem....We have a very strong empirical record about dealing with the Islamic Republic. They want to tie up President Trump and the administration in knots while cornering Israel as being the bad guy here. That's their strategy. Iran-watchers have been seeing this for decades." "You can't bring an apocalyptic, messianic, jihadistic regime to a table because, for them, every day they survive is a victory for them. In the Middle East, if you negotiate before you defeat your enemy, you are considered a loser." "Ultimately, the bottom line here is: regime change is the only way to guarantee stability, security, peace and prosperity for the Middle East and safety for the United States, because the Iranian republic will use nuclear weapons against the United States if they get them." "The Trump Administration together with the Israel Defense Forces successfully prevented an acute acquisition by the Iranian regime of nuclear weapons. This was done back in February 2026. That was the strategic goal and they succeeded in that goal in preventing what was an imminent acquisition and even usage of nuclear weapons, as was confirmed by the Iranian foreign minister."
