President Trump considering strike options against Iran, as over 500 protesters killed

Washington, Jan 12 (UNI) White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said on Monday that President Trump was considering strike options against Iran in the wake of the Islamic regime’s move to crack down on protesters.
“I think one thing President Trump is very good at is always keeping all of his options on the table,” Leavitt told reporters. “Airstrikes would be of the many, many options that are on the table for the commander-in-chief. Diplomacy is always the first option for the president. He told all of you last night that what you’re hearing from the Iranian regime is quite differently from the messages the administration has received privately.”
“I think the president has an interest in exploring those messages. However, with that said, the president has shown he’s unafraid to use military options if and when deemed necessary,” she continued. “Nobody knows that better than Iran.”
