NEW YORK (VINnews) — Concerns are mounting over whether the United States will join Israel in a direct strike on Iran, as officials weigh deploying a 30,000-pound bunker-busting bomb to destroy a key Iranian nuclear facility—an unprecedented move with far-reaching consequences.

Sources tell ABC News the weapon, which has never been used in combat, could be used to target Iran’s deeply buried Fordow enrichment site. While no final decision has been made, the U.S. military is already repositioning aircraft carriers and strike groups to the region.
Outside the Iranian mission to the United Nations on Manhattan’s East Side Thursday, pro-Israel demonstrators rallied in support of military action, declaring the time for diplomacy is over.
“I have no doubt that America will do the right thing. Peace through strength,” said Dov Hikind, a prominent pro-Israel advocate and former New York state assemblyman.
The rising pressure follows escalating hostilities between Israel and Iran, with both sides launching missile strikes. In one of the most severe incidents, Iranian forces reportedly struck a major hospital in Israel and a high-rise building in Tel Aviv, injuring at least 240 civilians.
Amid the chaos, President Donald Trump is weighing what officials call one of the most consequential foreign policy decisions of his second term. While signaling openness to a diplomatic solution, the president has set a firm timeline.
“I have a message directly from the President,” White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said. “Based on the fact that there’s a substantial chance of negotiations that may or may not take place with Iran in the near future, he will make his decision whether or not to go within the next two weeks.”
When pressed whether the U.S. would strike if Iran fails to return to the negotiating table, Leavitt reiterated: “The President is saying that he will make a decision whether or not to go within the next two weeks.”
Senior administration officials emphasized that Trump hopes to give Iran “room to come to their senses,” even as military readiness increases.
The world now watches anxiously, as Washington stands at the brink of a potentially major escalation in the Middle East.
Where’s Dov Hikind you ask?? He’s there. Lol.
But we do know the following: 1. Everything that will happen will be great, because HaShem runs the world (כל דעביד רחמנא לטב עביד). 2. As soon as Trump sees that Israel is B’H successful, he’ll jump in to take credit. 3. Tucker, Candace, and the rest of the “America First” MAGA crowd will continue to hate us because “דין הוא עשיו שונה את יעקב״.
Biggest mistake for Israel and the US, would be to have the Americans attack Iran. Israel will bare the responsibility for the consequences that will very likely follow for years to come. It will effect the US-Israel relationship in a very negative way. Israel should come up with a way to handle this on their own, for their benefit.
Hikind never misses the opportunity for publicity and vin is the only forum that continuously gives him the means. He’s a has been whose opinion has no significant value. We are now represented by eichenstein who shuns publicity and does a great job.
I doubt if the USA will do anything. Israel is doing a good job and the USA can stand on the sidelines and enjoy.
Only thing is we don’t have Bunker Buster Bombs. Maybe USA can “lend” us a few?
I certainly had thought, expected: Israel s success.
However, Israel as always : does close to Nothing in regard of CHARGING this war .This : I am extremely disappointed, disillusioned..
My question : had Israel known this moment situation: would they attack :
in the first place ?
What a mess .
PS Israel: being Politically correct : will get nowhere.
Too bad .
I truly hope I’m wrong, but it looks like Iran may soon start negotiating with Trump, and Israel will be pushed into yet another so-called ceasefire. In three to five years, we’ll likely find ourselves right back at square one. It’s like a bad movie Am Yisrael has been forced to watch on repeat for thousands of years. Bibi and the government must go all the way this time—finish the job—or God forbid, sooner or later, there may be no Eretz Yisrael left to defend.
Trump is acting very week forcing Israel to do all the dirty work
