Both the Pentagon’s recently released Nuclear Posture Review and National Defense Strategy say Tehran has no nuclear weapons. Washington believes Tehran "is not pursuing one."

If Washington does not secure a new nuclear deal or take military action itself, incoming Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will attack Iran, according to Tzachi Hanegbi, a longtime member of Israel’s Likud party. The former settlement minister issued the warning while speaking with Channel 12 news on Friday.
