President Donald Trump is poised to make a crucial decision regarding U.S. involvement in the escalating Israel-Iran air war, the White House announced Thursday. The decision, expected within two weeks, could pressure Tehran to reconsider its stance on negotiations.

The Republican leader has oscillated between urging diplomatic solutions and suggesting potential U.S. military support for Israel. This unpredictability has resulted in divisions within his support base, splitting hawkish Republicans from isolationist party members.

Despite previous unmet deadlines, Trump is keen on a diplomatic resolution. However, he remains open to forceful action if Iran, estimated to be weeks away from a nuclear weapon, fails to comply with nuclear restrictions. The debate continues on whether Congress will consent to any military strategies.
